horriblethisis

I have learned that there are no guarantees in life. You may marry young as I did (21), and have it last for 25 years (like mine did)...to realize the the AH you have been living with simply does not deserve you (as I realized). You never know where life will take you, but I do know that I am responsible for writing the remaining chapters of my life. I choose me, and I choose to make the second half of my life matter in a way that is going to make me happy, loved, appreciated, and never EVER again will I be taken for granted. In time, I will choose a sober mate, and someone who deserves me. I will chose a loving soul and a meaningful soul...I will NOT settle, and I WILL speak my mind. I believe that life has better things in store for me, and I am grateful that I had the strength to leave my husband when I did. I am grateful and appreciate the opportunity to move forward with a sound mind, and healthy body. I am grateful for the support that I have received on this site, and also for my family and friends that I have recently re-connected with. I can honestly say that after six months without HIM, I have found ME. Yes, I really have found ME. And I'll tell you...I had lost myself for a very, very long time. I thank God for making me whole again and staying in my heart guiding me when I needed it the most. If my parents were alive today, I hope that they would have supported my decisions, and would have been proud of me. Look out LIFE...HERE I COME!

So glad you are in a good space. Thank you for sharing this. It's good to know there is hope at the end of cycle once WE choose to end it.
You deserve all the happiness you are enjoying now
