Have you always been in Alaska ?
I live in S Carolina, and travel quite bit each year.
I respect your opinion.
I know it may not seem like much, but in the past few years I have grown in few ways.
I cant really explain it. But after my grad daughter was born almost 6 years ago, it was an awakening.
With her becoming a big part of my life, my oldest daughter ( her Mom), became so close. We were for the majority of my marriage at wits end. Nobody ever thought she would have forgave me for our relationship being terrible.
But she has, as she has stated. Of course, she was a child for most of it, teenager , but was in mid 20s when baby was born. That baby brought us together, and as ex and youngest have stated, they have seen me change so much.
I am more positive, happier, better listener. Many positive comments for almost 6 years.
I think it shows I am moving in a positive way to better myself.
May not be specific. Like losing weight, hobbies, sports etc.
My grand daughter and daughters have become a huge focus on my life.
Sure, I was naive enough to think we were going to get back together. I am fully awake now, and will go forward in more than just my family.
Its a start seeing the issue at hand and admitting it.
I still need positive and straight shooters to steer me . And I appreciate that..
