We have all been at the bottom of that same pit but somehow we begin to see the light that leads us out again. Each time we fall back in, we are not afraid as we realize the stay is shorter as we become more confident, less insecure and stronger. We realize that staying in the pit keeps us in a dark place and is not where we should be nor deserve to be. We deserve much more and only we can give ourselves what we deserve. Do not expect it from our WAS, from our children, from our friends or family. Only you can make things happen the way you want it and yes, you can say you did it your way.

She will find a husband who is ready to love from his soul. A man who realizes now that what is important in their relationship is understanding, compassion, and commitment. A man who wants to know his partner, know her needs, share her hopes, and heal her wounds. She will find a husband who wants to protect her and desire her and revel in her.
That is one lucky woman!
I know how much you love and care about your Mom but you do need to refocus on taking care of you too. Your Mom would feel very guilty if anything happened to you. A mother will always want for her kids before wanting anything for herself no matter how hold the kids are. Start enjoying your kids again, go tobogganing, skating, make a snowman (if it hasn't melted by now). Going to church brings a sense of peace and hope for a better future even when things seem grim. Replacing Bourbon with fresh, cold, clear water re-energizes you and also helps to shed some unwanted weight. Taking walks with the fresh air blowing in your face, while listening to your favourite tunes on your ipod really does to bring things in perspective. Maybe the time is right to take a vacation to a bright sunny warm place. I have truly found my one week away in Punta Cana my turning point to coming back to life.
You will have a brighter future. I know I will see you on top of that mountain again soon as we both find our way back up there. Thanks for stopping by my thread. It means so much knowing that people still care.
