Comparing your internal stability and happiness to the place you were early this year is very inspiring. I've been through this once before, and I know in my brain that I can/will get there, but it's still pretty raw so I don't truly believe that I'll get there a lot of the time. It's very helpful to see someone in real time standing strong on their own 2 feet, still loving their spouse, but without the dread and sorrow weighing them down.

Thank you for sharing!
