Uncertain of What I Have

[burned]

It forces us to find ourselves, and our happiness is not attached to our spouse any more. It comes from within. I scares me a bit, though, as I worry it means we will never be able to R now.

I’m seeing a few similar comments today, maybe because I’m on the lookout for them, maybe because I’m starting to feel it myself. But I do think, if the received wisdom around here is worth it’s salt, that this moment represents a turning point. It’s the point at which we feel furthest away from our spouse and have the least amount of hope for R. And yet it sounds like this is a point we have to reach, after which the potential for R becomes greater, not smaller.
