No more

I have been dealing with anger towards Catie ex husband. He showed up at the wake and it bothered me. Looking back I should not of let it upset me. What bothered me is all the things she told me about him. All the awful things he did to her and how bad he made her feel. I was working on a story at work today. I am a TV news photographer so I spend a lot time outside. The sun was shining through some trees and I felt Catie with me. I felt her warmth embrace and it made me think that she would not want to be mad at people from the past. She would not want to me focus on the negative. He showed darkness and I showed her the light. I have decided to let go of any anger towards him. There is not point and I do not need to hold anger towards someone like that. I look at our old pictures and see the happiness and joy. That is what I will focus on. She told me a few months ago that she had forgotten what he sounded like. She had moved on that from that chapter and I will do the same. I was going through old emails and I came across this one. It puts everything in perspective. I will focus on the things that made us happy and forget all bs that does not matter now.
"Hello there! Ya know I was thinking on my way to work about positivity and how good it can be in your life. Then I got to thinking of how I feel I have thrived in my life and become a better person inside and out and that would never be possible if I did have a positive environment to live in. That is all thanks to you. Thank you P for everything you do to create such an environment" 

I read her words a few times a day or whenever I am a low point.
