Grace - your above message gave me goosebumps and I agree it was so well said. (My first response didn’t post properly so I hope I can remember the gist of what I said).

Your post is so very helpful to me because despite being surrounded by love and support I do feel the opinions of others that don’t understand why I’m not angry. I entertain a lot of “you should said say this, or do that” ....I know they hate seeing my hurt and upset but I choose the same path as you. I struggle greatly at times with how awful, lost and alone H must be feeling despite the outward anger and confidence he displays. I like how you said that your “choices and actions have given you a peace you never thought possibly throughout this journey”. I am still relatively early on in my journey and can feel this peace at times when I behave true to myself, true to my character which is loving and compassionate. How interesting that I feel most off balance when there is conflict, confrontation and when I let fear or frustration take the wheel.

I will mark this and re-read when I need the reminder. Thank you (((Grace)))
