I want all of you to know one thing, no matter how bad it hurts, if only one person wants to work things out, let the other one go. You will begin to see the sun come out, and understand that what that other person said in the past about "forever" and "love" was NOT real. If you're going to be happy, start by being happy with yourself. YOUR LIFE. Your kids. Your family. Your friends. All the things and people that didn't come first when you had a spouse. May God bless all of you, and if any of you need to talk, please let me know. If I can get through this, there is no reason that you can't look at my life, and take strength from me. That is why I'm sharing this with you, because when I needed strength, God, my family and friends carried me. If this gives you any kind of empowerment, then my job is done. In the long run, you will see, that loving someone means never having to hurt them when it's in your control.
