That is a beautiful poem. I think I'm going to print it out as a reminder of what this journey is really all about. I feel so grateful for all the input I've received since I first started posting here.
PIB--Thank you for Pen's vote of confidence. I appreciate it immensely. I'm still having trouble with my decision, even though I feel it is ultimately right for me. I guess my conscience speaks really loudly and I don't take consequences lightly.
But I'll not only survive--I'm going to thrive!
Oh, Pen? I think I'm going to leave it to you to start the next thread. You pick a topic and I'll come join in when I can. Right now, I just really don't want to talk about my life... not only here, but off the BB too. I really need this time to "data dump" and just be.
I have a busy weekend planned... hitting Coors Field with a friend tomorrow night to see the Rockies play the Diamondbacks (courtesy of my swell friend, Merrick) and then catching up with him on Sunday. I'm really looking forward to the idea of fun without dwelling on my train wreck of a marriage for awhile!
Hope everyone has a splendid weekend!
