ericmsant2...I understand and agree with all of the advice I have received so far. My problem is taking it. HAHA!
I know that I have NO control over her moving out. I know that I have NO control over her filing for D. I know that I should remain emotionally strong for my kids. I know that I should make positive changes to myself for myself.
The problem I have is that scary 4 letter word called FEAR.
She has always been my rock to hold onto in life's storms. Now it is up to myself to stand solo in all of those same storms. This will, I know, make me a stronger & better man, but it sure is hard to keep a smile on my face while I get started. I know that none of this is my creation, but as I said earlier...her crisis has created a crisis in me...one that I need to squash fast so that I can fully commit to making a better life for me and my 3 kids.
As for the quote, I walk by faith even when I cannot see, that is something that I have reaffirm to myself daily. The good thing is that This community gives us the confidence to move forward thru these storms of life.
Thanks for the uplifting advice...
