feeling lighter.


today feels like a good day. Elcee posted a scene from the labyrinth, there's another scene in that movie where the heroine walks into a replica of her bedroom and is tempted to stay. That's been the last two weeks. Look,everything's ok! No,it isn't. Have expressed that I cant be the wife to active addiction,am uncertain whether I can be the wife to recovering addiction, and that seperating may be the best thing to do. I haven't changed my mind. I see my a doing what he knows how to do,and for this I can feel no contempt,for one can only work with what they have. For me,come what may,I'm done here. He is running back to mummy and daddy across the sea,back to drunk every day,back to his own hell,disguised as paradise. Not for me to think about. Actually that's really very true. If I stop to think about the disgusting unfairness of it all,I will be paralysed.so, I think, I'm gonna borrow a little of the martyrs tenacity,just for today,and see what I can do.I do feel much lighter.

Sounds as if you choose a constructive response to the insanity instead of a negative one. I heard great courage and wisdom in your share Aquamom Thank you.
