When my son was young, he and I would play a game. We made it up and called it, "What would happen if.."
What would happen if he were 10 feet tall? What would happen if I could fly?
The game continued for many years. And from time to time, even as he is an adult, I will sometimes look at him and say, "What would happen if? The questions are, of course, more realistic now.
But I got to thinking about that game today and my thoughts turned to all of you.
What would happen if you really and truly let your spouse go on their journey? What would happen if you realized your true worth? What would happen if you believed that you will be ok? What would happen if you accepted that things happen exactly as they are supposed to?
This journey we have be sent on is an incredible opportunity to find us. It is heartwrenching and soul breaking...but it is amazing when you come out the other side.
Trust this process. Believe in you and your ability to rise above it. Find your self worth. Trust in your strength. Know without a single doubt, that you will come out of this and be better than ok.
Walk your path with courage and dignity. Do not allow anyone to move you from it.
This was a journey you were meant to take. You could have taken the easier path. It speaks volumes about you that you didnt.
