LOL... Nope. His name was Rick Recht and back when this mess first started I listened to him all the time. His voice is very similar to Kenny Loggins and just soothes my soul. I read this as Kenny Rogers... and started hearing a Yiddish version of The Gambler: "You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, know when to walk away, know when to run... you never count your money when you're sitting at the table, There'll be time enough for counting When the dealing's done." LOL ETA: Wow!!!! That's an awesome email. It brought tears to my eyes. *HUGS* You are in my prayers.

Hi Luna, I agree totally. Darkness has been my healing grace from G-d as hard as I have fought it. I have managed to not say ONE WORD since March 17, 08 I understand how vitally important this is to just stay out and let G-d do what G-d is going to do. And keep to my OWN backyard. Pray for him, PLEASE......

LOL, Kenny Loggins..... You are too cute. Pray for H, please pray for him. I'm in G-ds fold and shelter. I truly understand Kick how important it is to STAY OUT... Please pray for H.... And G-ds will to be shown. Really when you think about THIS.. It's a miracle. Not necessarily the email, although its way beyond a MIRACLE.... But ME, Queenie ISN'T rushing to do ANYTHING... Just be still. And I'm SO OK with that. I have learned so much and am so grateful.... for the journey because of who I have become... MIMI, where ARE YOU?

Wow Queenie. That's amazing. Did your daughter respond? I wonder if he wrote it knowing that she would let you read it.

Did your daughter respond? I wonder if he wrote it knowing that she would let you read it. Nope, she hasn't responded. I asked her that and she said no, that she needed to think about it and that I could help her with her mind. But that she didn't know what to say. I just reaffirmed to her that he had a place to come home to. I'm not going to tell her what to say. This is her relationship with her dad. I honestly don't know what he would think she would do. He does know we are very close now. I just have to stay out of the wondering. But please all of you wonder for me. And keep those prayers coming. for HIM..

Hi Hope, He isn't home yet. I'm not jumping to anything other than he reached out to ONE child and is going through SOMETHING. I KNOW NOTHING..... G-d does... please keep praying for HIM......

Queenie -
The email sounds very sincere. If DD has faith, she can let dad know that G-d is a G-d of redemption and she will be praying that hubby can be restored to the man of G-d that he was before, the father, and head of the family.
I will be praying unceasingly for WH.

What I think is that affairs almost always end, and then the WS turns back into their real selves.
I'm no expert, but the email is much different than the letters I got from my WH. He was always "sorry" and then there were a lot of buts - not a good sign.
Hope you have read the 8 cow wife story on TL's thread.

What I think is that affairs almost always end, and then the WS turns back into their real selves. That's your story and your sticking to it. eh..... Well, you might be right on this one. G-d only knows. His actions are still no different, so I can't think anything has changed. I haven't read yet, but I will now......
