Linda, I'm crying as I write this post and I can't exactly say why. I wish I could take your husbands shoes for just one afternoon, walk into that apartment and take back that locket for you. Why does it hold such meaning to me as well as you, I don't know for sure. Things are in such turmoil in my heart and mind right now, but I feel for where you are. Why is it that those of us on here know just what needs to be done, but our spouses are so clueless? Linda, you know your husband loves you, you know he has finally decided that he was wrong and wants to be with you forever again. Please, please rest in that and trust him just a little. If I could do it for him I would. But this is his job. I understand completely the meaning of the locket. The locket I gave to Annie carries much the same significance for me.
I'm in a bad place Linda. Can't seem to get out of it today for some reason. All that comes is tears and wondering why. I want yours to work, yours to be right, because maybe that means mine can be right some day. Happiness all around me, but I'm not happy. I'm empty and defeated. Sorry Linda. You're such a friend to me.
I pray it goes well. I pray he realizes what he needs to do for you. It's in there somewhere. Give him time. He WILL figure it out.
My best to both of you. God's blessings,
Bill
