Tryin to do what works

[Timetotry]

Moose,

Its hard to hear the same things again and again: give it time and patience. You really are alot luckier than others out here but I know it doesn't help.

Four months into this myself, I will say it does get a little better with time. Not a lot, not noticeable on a daily basis but overall it does. I keep a journal outside of the board and when I look back at Jan and Feb I am amazed at what has transpired and changed. Its hard to GAL and act 'as if'. Just try cause it may start to click even though you want not too. You may be able to say that you like yourself better and it will show to others that are worth noticing.

I'd suggest keeping some thoughts that you may not want posted in a file on your computer to read weeks later. It may help convince you of how far you've come and changed to be the better person that only a fool would leave.

Take it minute by minute that then turns hours to hours that then will be days to days, etc.
