New to DB - Need Help! Pt 2

[NH115]

I'm always up for a good story!

While we're waiting for Bond, I saw someone else post a thread about thankfulness. I've been naturally thinking a lot about what I'm thankful for right now...those things are easy to forget in my current sitch

I'm thankful for:

1. My wife. She's a beautiful, strong woman who has brought so much color to my life. She's a wonderful mom. I'm thankful that she gave us the gift of time to work on our issues instead of simply running away, as many WAS have done.

2. My two beautiful daughters. If nothing else comes out of my current M, I still have them.

3. I have a good job, paid-for home and cars. Good health insurance that pays for MC.

4. Myself. Out of all the pain I have discovered how much I actually like myself. I am a good, strong man, no matter what my W may think right now. I'm my own person, and I've been getting my passion and purpose back. I can feel my alpha male confidence returning, which has been gone for way too long.
I know I'd be a catch for a some lucky woman, even if my W can't see it right now.

5. This'll sound crazy, but in a way I'm thankful for OM. He's not the cause of our issues. Our M was dying before he ever came along. He may very well be the catalyst for my W and I to forge a beautiful new marriage together. It's also possible that we won't. In that case, see #4 above. I'll find a beautiful new relationship with a woman I haven't even discovered yet.

6. Last but not least, I am thankful for Wonka, Starsky, and all the posters on this forum. DB.com has been a godsend and a safe haven for me to navigate this sitch. I appreciate everyone's wisdom and insight. You have pulled me out of some dark discouraging holes and saved me some from mistakes more than once in the last month.

Happy Thanksgiving! I wish grace and peace for all the posters, whatever your M situation is right now.
