LoneWlf, I know the feeling of not much changing. It sounds like you're progressing in other parts of your life though. There's no better time to rely on your faith than now. We weren't put on this planet to live happy perfect lives. That doesn't mean we enjoy suffering but it can serve as a means to strengthen our faith for those who seek a religious path. If I were you I'd inform your wife about the letter so she can pick it up if she likes.
