Way Less Lost!! Pt 4

[Pattnee5]

Perhaps, in 5 years when someone asks you about your divorce, you’ll say “It was the best thing that could have ever happened to me because it forced me to learn how to be courageous.”

I think this whole experience has taught me so much including courage. I think I just feel like a failure that I didn’t keep fighting ( even though I know there’s nothing left to fight for when the other person isn’t on the same page). I was never one to give up on something and my marriage and family were the two most important things. I think that’s the part holding me back.
Not the fear of my future and my happiness because I am strong within myself to know I am going to be more than ok.

I am excited for what the future may hold and I do absolutely love the idea of making my own decisions and my own path for me and my kids and even moreso that they will grow up in a stable loved environment away from the dreaded alcohol. H mentioned this morning as we crossed paths that his 24yo nephew ( sisters kid) is in a bad way with drinking and alot of other issues. H sister is a “high functioning alcoholic” as she self proclaims. I didn’t say anything to that comment other that that such a sad situation. In my head our S12 was eating breakfast right nearby and I just thanked my lucky stars he doesn’t have to watch his dads habit every night and learn that’s how we deal with stress. Apples don’t fall far from the trees

Thanks again for opening my eyes Kind to my possible DB mistake😂 I’m still learning
