Am I ready for this?

[reachingHigher]

A random thought occurs to me to share with you, Mm. When I was ready to quit in my sitch, as I was many, many times, I would pic a future event -- say our older son getting M and my H being there with someone else. Would it bother me? Then I would think -- it could've been me if I had waited a little longer...

And I DO know people that are REALLY done. And I knew I was not. So I knew I had some strength in me to go a little farther in the sitch, pull back and nurture myself and continue to hope for the future.
