| Having a Hard Time
I've really been struggling the last couple of weeks to keep my composure. I was reading my al anon book last night. Specifically chapter 11 I think it is that talks about forgiveness and love and detachment. I'm having a really hard time with this right now for some reason. I know my husband has a disease. I know I should be able to love him without resenting him. I do love him with all my heart, and he's wonderful. His attributes far overshadow his "disease", but for some reason, this week, I'm just having all these hard feelings towards him. I don't know if it's just because it's tax time, I just bought a new van (so my car payment increased by $100), his child support just got increased $142 per month, and both my kids need braces (which is $10,000-as if) and it's all just stressing me out and coming out as resentment towards him for his lack of ability to help with financial decisions, or what. Any suggestions? Maybe if I just keep reading that chapter over and over.....
