Keep journalling your feelings and the sitch here but REALLY look at what Faith asked you.
It leads me to this:
You have a lot more illustrations.....
NOW more than ever you should pursue that. We both know that art (painting, music, etc) is an EMOTIONAL vent. And it's likely a HUGE part of who you were when you and he met....before kids, mortgages, etc.
That is exactly what Faith was talking about.
Find all the good stuff about you from 'then' and now simply work on the bad baggage and habits you accumulated and replace them with, new, smarter, DB relationship skills.
You'll find that DOING the things you lost (or gave up) will speed the 'original you" back into the present Lucky.
In essence, become a Lucky Greatest Hits CD!!
It may not save your M but it will certainly SAVE YOU!!
That's the most important things here AND the best way to save it if it can be saved.
Whoops - sorry, AK... how did I miss this post!? My apologies.
Thank you kindly... yes, I must start drawing again... I've known for a long time that my salvation lays in creation... I must start drawing.. and drawing obsessively.. it's just so hard to pick up that pencil and I'm not sure quite why. Depressive procrastination? A shift in priorities? I must find a way to shift my priorities back to my art. With both kids entering school this year.. hopefully I'll find some more time for that.
My apologies.
