The Road Not Taken

[tigerlily78]

JFun, sorry you are having a down night. I know the uncertainty of whether the work will pay off the way we want it to is enough to make you nuts, and the fact that they can't in this moment appreciate the sacrifice and hardwork we are putting in adds insult to the injury.

Every day is a new day, leading up to a future we can't yet know. Whatever the outcome, I think it is important to most of us to know that we did what we could on our end to give the R a fighting chance. That's what you have been doing. I think even though you are feeling discouraged tonight, you will decide by tomorrow morning that you aren't ready to give up the fight just yet. Even if your W doesn't appreciate the changes you have made and the work you are putting in, clearly your sons do. Let their appreciation be enough for now.
