I still carry this in my purse....I read this many times when I was not OK, when I was holding on and looking for strength.

Now, today, I AM OK.

I hope this inspires someone else too. Thank you again.

Strength comes from within. You can't get it from someone or go somewhere to get it. It is already here, waiting to be used when you need it most. Believe in yours

Yay! I love when this thread does a surprise pop to the surface.

I was talking with some friends this weekend, and we were comparing notes on current "issues."

We all had a smile and a laugh because we no longer have this "OMG - THIS is the END of the WORLD!!" feeling when things happen.

It really does toughen you up. Hugs along the way are nice too, though.

Hugs to you all today!

What a great post. At (almost) 64, right now all I see is years of being alone, no one to go out to dinner with, or on vacation with, and it's scary. But if I let him back, then I have years of turmoil with children and constant stress.

What a choice, huh? Your post gives me hope.

I so needed it today. As the moving date draws closer (I and the kids are moving back to our old house, leaving STBXWH in this big house on the 10-acre farm), my emotions are all over the place. I'm sad and the "whys" are coming in waves. I'm at work and cry on and off all day. I just need to read this over and over all this week to carry me through the move.

Thank you...thank you...thank you.
