You are not alone.

Al Anon and my therapist helped me understand two things. First, a great lesson learned in the rooms of Al Anon was "not in my time." Meaning things will not happen on the timetable I have decided upon or wish for.

My therapist has helped me understand that when people live a life of deceit and cruelty there are always negative ramifications. Again, not in my time, but as sure as the sun rises, it is so. I choose to believe her because I've seen it happen.

Of course, I would like to see some things happen NOW, but so be it.

Keep putting one foot in front of the other and things will work out, I promise.
