Grace, Love, Compassion, and Faith - EVEN BETTER

Val:

I'm sorry you're in a low point.

I have to tell you, I feel EXACTLY the same as you.. Thanks for so eloquently expressing your feelings -- I wish I was able to do it as well as you.

I'm sorry to hear that WLA. I wish all of us could just jump to January 2nd.. however I know this painful experience is necessary for the healing process.

I about to send back my edits to the marriage settlement agreement and I struggle with the finality it means for my M. My WAW will use it as another way to demonize me, but it is what it is.

Yes. She will feel what she needs to feel to get through this... as will you. I personally allow myself a good cry or two with each step. It's a slow death.

You'll get through this rough patch and things will be okay. Don't let the "negative thoughts-- e.g., "lost the love of my life" -- adversely affect you. I strugle with that too, but am doing my best to not let these cognitive distortions plunge me into a depressed state.

As will you. I really try WLA.. there is just always a day or two every month where I get knocked over.

You've done an amazing job with GAL and moving forward. You've given folks like me encouragement, support and help through our tough times. I hope you remember this in your down moments and I hope it serves as an inspiration and pick me up

Thank you. I'm glad to help and it did pick me up.

Spending the Christmas back East?

Yep.. thankfully LA has been training me well for the cold. What's up with this weather???

Thoughts and prayers go out to you my friend!

As to you my friend!
