Just checking in. Not sure if anyone reads this but I will just in case. THings are going well. We talk a lot about how we are trying to do things differently this time. How we communicate our feelings, etc. This does really make me feel closer.
I have to say I think I really got it last week when I truly realized I only control myself. Very freeing but also holds me even more accountable for myself. I guess I am a slow learner.
H has made several comment the last few weeks about how happy he is to be here. How it took him so long to realize what a great life he had/has. Those are good to hear.
I also want to encourage others with this. We were talking a little about when he left and was gone. I asked if he believed it was my fault. Is that how he got himself to leave us? Yes, he said. But, he said that lie went away after the first month when I realized I still wasn't happy.!! That my friends was golden to hear. This journey is certainly not easy but it is worth it!
