This spoke to me today.....think we all can use it!
 
"Weep"

"Weep deeply over the life you hoped would be. Grieve the losses. Then wash your face, trust God, and embrace the life you have."

This really touched me today....as for many of us it's very confusing to have loved and also left an alcoholic or abuser or whatever. Thought it may help somebody tonight-it definitely helped me :)

Peace to y'all!!

I have definitely been weeping. I think I'm fine, and then it just happens.

Danri-it happened to me for a long time....sometimes still does. Not a frequently but it does. It's ok. It's a good sign and part of grief. You're going to be ok. Hugs, friend.

My divorce group. I've found many uplifting and honest things like this from a great group of ladies :)
