I'd like to believe given enough time the memories won't haunt us anymore
You know, for the longest time the memories would haunt me to no end. And it would be the little things that set it off. I'd like to say that my journey through the forest and subsequent exit has allowed that ghost to leave. In some aspect, it has. But, the ghost will always be there I believe.
I hope that I can do another vacation back there. I'm going to be honest, I took the kids on a mini-vacation at the end of summer - sort of a back to school thing. Just us. We stayed in a hotel, went to the zoo, and then drove a bit to our favorite aircraft carrier. We had a good, no make that great, time. It was odd without the ex, but I didn't miss her not being there. The kids didn't really talk about her, either...just a little here and there.
There are moments in this life when you are so confident in the rightness of your actions, that not even for a second do you consider the option that you might be wrong.
