I love you ark...I hope that's okay <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> ...it is a purely platonic, think you say such wonderful uplifting things to people, kind of love! I will put this on my list of memorable posts to bump... may I also copy it and credit you? these observations would make a good companion piece to one of my coping techniques...I tell people to find a little piece of joy, each and every day...a reason to love the world you are in, to lift you out of the drama, crisis and trauma you find yourself in the midst of...to give yourself a break, no matter how short... I followed this myself in my quest for sanity during turmoil and vowed to continue doing it...and yet every once in a while I forget my own advice <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> ... your post is my little piece of joy today... awed

Amen, and Amen again. I too love you Ark, you are an inspiration, a lighthouse through the fog, a warm puppie and a cold 2x4 which ever one is need most. You are as steady and as sure as a wise old woman who is still young and beautiful... You are a wild, succulent woman and a fine member of the sisterhood (and brotherhood) of the universe... In fact you have universal appeal <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> (and you know how to place those three little dots better than anyone) (and no I'm not sucking up, just showing gratitude) <small>[ August 31, 2004, 03:26 PM: Message edited by: weaver ]</small>

And to all of you who don't get many replies at first, don't worry. I talk to myself on here all the time too, but the good news is, is my written communication skills are improving, and my ego is getting smaller (as in I'm used to being responded to at work because everyone has to respond to me, but on here it's anyones guess if you get an answer or not, so ego gets grounded) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> Also you learn to become alot more creative just to get noticed, and thats another bonus <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

Ark, you bad person, you made me cry with humility, recognition and happiness.
I thought this would kill me seven weeks ago. Then you lot convinced me I would live.
And I did.
And I have gotten stronger and smarter and more humble beforeGod and my problems.
And Bob looked around and he decided " could be worse!"
Thank you ark. I hope to buy you a decent bottle of wine some day, and laugh. {{{{ark}}}}

Thank you for this thread Ark...I guess it will take time to accept it's all I can do at this point,
and possibly the most important thing I will have done.

Well Ark, I can kind of tell MelodyLane is jealous of you, I think it has to do with the fact that you are a yankee woman, and we yankee women ALWAYS look nice...Texan women just look nice when they go to town <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> She said so herself <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> P.S. Melody - I hope you had fun in TC! Did you get some fudge?

Ark: THANK YOU! These last months have been so brutal for me. Even now, as a hurricane looms, I wonder how my newly minted exW could leave her boys and take a vacation with the OM. I wonder how she could leave the M. I hurt so deeply. Yet. I am coming to that place that informs me that I am not the blame for her unhappiness and she is not the source of my value. One day I shall know what you know and believe it, 100%. Thank you for reminding us that we are fine, just as we are, no matter what happens in our marriages. You are a QUEEN! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />
