I would like to acheive personal happiness all around. When I look in the mirror, I want to feel complete happiness (is that possible?) I pray for a healthy little one too!!

I 2nd inner-strength.

I seek to find strength and happiness within myself. I seek understanding for what are MY expectations and what are people's expectation's of me.

I seek to be strong enough to set firm boundaries and be at peace with the consequences of said boundaries whatever those consequences might be.

I guess the one thing I want is the Lord's Blessings. Which I'm hoping covers the gamut of my needs, finance, love, strength, peace.

I guess I'm trying to pull a fast one on ya'll though by my ONE thing covering all my wants... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

Redhat,

Thanks for your comment. I already met an attorney (current husband is also attorney, I just can't get away from lawyers...??? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> ) whom I really like and feel connected. May be that's why I have stopped crying since last week.

My current husband moved out just before Christmas'eve and he now rented an apartment closeby. He started to feel very lonely, having to do everything for himself (groceries, laundry, etc...) I ask him that I want no contact with him for a couple of months while I decide whether to work on the marriage or not, but he is afraid that I might drift away from him and he has been calling everyday to talk to me and the kids and has come over the house every weekend. I think that when he first confessed about the affairs and I wanted him to stay and work and the marriage, he had the upper hand and demanded that we both needed to work on the marriage without allowing me to express my hurt and anger. Now that he has moved out and I emptied the house of his belongings or any family pictures of him, he realized that he is going to loose his family for good. His behaviors have changed, and he begged me to not give up on the marriage. The sad thing is, I think I already have!

Tree Tree Tree...

The first part was good, but how about just wishing that your WH and all Wayward Spouses and OP's get what they deserve. Nothing more, nothing less. It is a pie-in-the-sky wish but what the heck.

I wish that I stay true to myself and my beliefs.
I wish for my children to learn a positive message from the mess they have had to endure this past year.(whatever that might be, there must be something good in there?)
I wish that my STBX find whatever it is that makes her happy... finally. Only God knows what it is.

I really plan for this to be my/our year!

1. Career change, 30-60 days. Something with more stability and steady income. I am a serial entrepreneur and my workaholic tendencies and stressful rollercoaster lifestyle have contributed to our marital problems.

2. Lose another 30 pounds or so and get the abs back. I have lost about 55 pounds already and put on a lot of muscle, but it's time to get serious about stage two.

3. Lots of other goals..this the year for me!!
