Getting on with life....sigh..... Yes doing that.... looks like my life is getting on with or without me. Hah!
Thanks for the nice comments about me handling my situation with skill, although I do not think I have done that. I try, some days are better than others.
I agree that any form of pursuit or pushing is not a good plan. It only drives people away. I love the open birdcage door analogy. I think that is the best way to describe most of our situations.
I think the moral of all of our stories is that we are not supposed to understand everything. Some things in this life are mysteries. There sometimes is no closure, or apologies or any Hollywood ending. And so where does that leave us? To carry on of course.
I read a great book by Joel Osteen who recommended us to thank God now for the goodness to come, not to wait until the goodness is here and then thank him. Basically, have faith, trust God and thank him now for what's to come. I liked that and will remind myself to thank God more often. Gratitude for what I have and not the sour grapes for what I don't.
