The begining of the rest of my new life? (3)

[SH_]

good morning ripe.

Thank you for your posts. I enjoy reading them immensely. You have a knack for deep insight and this is something that I connect with and need.
Your intellect and ongoing learning and seeking out information with deep spiritual implications is something that I admire.

I am reading through your story and about half way now, but I see so many similarities, that hurts. It hurts to know that there are more than just me suffering the injustices we are going through with our families. But your story gives me strength and additional knowledge that I need now.

I feel your pain of having to watch our child say good bye.....I feel your pain in the desire to forgive, but the struggle to truly feel it in our heart and soul, I feel your pain to reflect on those aspects of who we are that may have contributed to the breaking up of our families. I feel your pain, because it is my pain as well.

Check out the Ted Talk by Guy Winch about emotional first aid. It has really helped me these past few days since I discovered it. I share it with you in hopes to repay some of the help you have provided me in your posts of knowledge and wisdom.

Keep sharing your insights as I benefit, and I am sure others do as well.
Be well my friend.
