Cali - what has happened is a stark reminder to us all that no matter how much movement in the forward direction our spouse appears to be making we must never become complacent and think that we have arrived into the safety zone.

I am saddened to hear that after all that you have given; the chance you granted your wife, she has chosen to throw it away and continue to walk down her path of destruction. You question why He put you through all this, what was his aim - I feel you have learnt so much from this 2nd time around with your w; you put in to practice all that you have learnt; patience, understanding and how to make the most awesome smoothies. You have shared your experiences, not only with us here but your church, in turn helping others understand this terrible journey that your w has embarked on and the painful yet enlightening journey you have been on as consequence. Cali you yourself have admitted to being a better man and father for this experience, you have changed and this is what He has guided you to becoming.

I do hope that the transition to your next home goes as smoothly as possible and you manage to find somewhere that can accommodate your family. Allow the peace you feel to surround your soul and let her comments and actions slide off your well worn jacket, once you are settled in your new home its time to live for Cali.

Much love and hugs to you, you and your s are in my thoughts, don't be a stranger. xx
