- the future hasn't happened yet. again, useless.

What am I getting at? The present is all that matters. You can use the past as a means to a better present, but don't dwell there. Focus on each day, each minute. You'll be better for it.


CRW, thank you for this. I agree. I am trying to be in the present and move forward.

Somehow things feel like they are falling into place. Trust me, I did not feel this way for a long time when H was off in the fog and then the rest of my life took a downward spiral. There were many times I felt that I was losing everything and wondered if I could even survive it. It was the darkest and scariest time in my life. Somehow, I don't even know how, I got up each day and just tried a little bit harder.

I wanted to give up, and I was hanging on by a thread, but I never let myself. I do believe (to an extent) in the laws of attraction. So keep getting up each morning, moving forward, being the best you can be, but also--forgive yourself every time you screw up! Time and patience are key. Learning from your own mistakes can be one of the best ways to grow.

Keep on keepin on!
