What we fear, we focus on.

What we focus on, we make happen.

Your patience in your sitch 25, makes you an awesome example of how being patient and growing your life in the mean time, is so worth it.

Most difficult for those who have known OPs in their spouses' lives is forgiving the initial event. More difficult is having the patience and strength to allow the EA/PA to play out while it is still going on during M. Forgiveness appears impossible.

As 25 suggests, often the EA/PA does not last. So many of us are waiting to see "how that works out for" our spouses.

That was my reason to drop the rope. I have nothing more to give someone who needs to figure that out. So I move forward.
