Perhaps strength doesn't reside in having never been broken but in the courage required to grow strong in the broken places." I'm a 50 year old woman, who is rebuilding my life after my ex of 20 years walked away for reasons of his own. I have owned up to my mistakes, my faults in the demise of my marriage and have learned and continue to learn in moving forward to a new place. This experience is something I would not wish on anyone, however in saying that I've learned a tremendous amount about who and what I am. I'm a good mom, daughter, friend and was a good wife. I'm far from perfect and I'm okay with that. I am fortunate in that I have the ability to look after myself, my kids. I try to treat people as I would like to be treated and believe in myself. I love my family, and couldn't imagine life without my kids. The journey of healing is slow, painful, but we do get to a better place with a ot of tears and hard work.

Thank you for your comment on my journal entry. I am never critical of other people either. I believe there is good in everybody but yet I think nothing of tearing myself apart and thinking negative about me. I know it is hard to let go of 20+ years and try to figure out what went wrong and why we couldn't just have that happily ever after. I,too, am thankful for my kids. They made it all worthwhile. We will get there..day by day..we will heal..hugs to you!
Thanks. He paid a bunch in time for court yesterday. The Judge was pissed it was late. So things are great. Yay!
