We are together in that messy boat 2t. I think the same thing happened with my H 7 years ago too. He wanted to recommit but he was never fully finished with his journey. So here we are again too.
I think you are right on, that they have to finish their journey. You and I will have to be extra db this time to ensure they can complete it. I hope! Maybe they never will but then at least we know. Hugs to my 7 year MLC sister!
