I know how much you love it when your own words come back to haunt you. So, here goes... I remember a good friend of mine telling me once that our pains and sorrows are a part of us. It is our right to feel and have emotions over our losses and events that cause us pain. I want to remind that friend of that right now. F4W, that is not struggling... That is LIFE. It is what will help us in this difficult process. You know this more than the rest.
As you often do, I will use an analogy here... What you are going through reminds me of a newborn baby animal... It is as if you are trying to learn how to walk... It can be a little awkward... you stumble a little bit.... And, the everyday things you would do with your wife, you don't always do anymore. It can be a scary feeling because it is uncharted territory. But, at the same time... it is forcing you to re-discover yourself and take it to another level. F4W, this is you. You have grown so much and you continue to grow on a daily basis.
I am filled with such admiration for the way you have handled this difficult time in your life. I know that there were many times that I thanked God that you were in my life during my seperation/divorce. Your friendship and positive outlook on life kept me going. You reminded me that it is alright to hurt, to be angry, and to forgive myself, and for that I will be forever grateful.
F4W... my thoughts go with you, as well as my prayers. I hope each day brings a reminder of who you are now and I truly hope there will be happier times ahead for you.
Thank you again for being such a good friend. In case I have not said it in a while... You are the best! Thinking of you, ~OC Kim
