Just began the process of divorcing my wife of 4 years for having a sexual relationship with someone I’ve been friends with for over 20 years. With the marriage goes my sense of financial security, a cohesive circle of close friends, a stable place to live, an adorable pup, and pretty much the entirety of my life plans for the next five years. I’m living paycheck to paycheck, and only barely so.
But I’ve learned to rely on myself and my resolve a lot more, and the relationship I’ve begun to forge with my inner-self is something I wouldn’t trade away for anything. And I’ve become a lot closer with the friends I’ve retained, or it feels like I have.
I climbed that mountain a couple of years ago. Absolutely destroyed me. The scenery made it worth it.
Autumn Leaves by Eva Cassidy has an almost spiritual importance to me, and I come back to it every year.
Eva had such a perfect voice.
You’re just not smart enough to buy your footwear from the gardening department.
How do I use it?
Any chance this is still available? I would love to have it for my wife.
With the understanding that I don’t have the knowledge to say that you’re anything but absolutely right, I do think that the damage assessment would be tricky when taking mental health and social wellbeing into account.
Oh, please. As if they bother to keep it a secret nowadays.
