Thank you for your service to this board and the travelers on this difficult path.

Sometimes the walk you walk to be of service is a thankless job, and sometimes I'm surprised at where the attacks on you come from.

Please know that at least this marriage builder totally respects you and sees you as inspired in your service to all here!

Thank you!

The ? that made recovery possible: "Which lovebuster do I do the most that hurts the worst"?

The statement that signaled my personal recovery and the turning point in our marriage recovery: "I don't need to be married that badly!"

If you're interested in saving your relationship, you'll work on it when it's convenient. If you're committed, you'll accept no excuses.

Agree with Kayla. I would also add that I am grateful to you, Kayla, and SMB for being members of the same club. The club that cares too much for people to tell them what they WANT to hear at the expense of what of they NEED to hear. You are all true friends to those of us on this board. smile

I never had to take the Kobayashi Maru test until now. What do you think of my solution?

Thanks to all for what you do. I might like to hear, might not like to agree, but I know that you MB warriors do care for us BS.

Appreciate the input and for the support on the days when I did not even want to get out of bed.

How nice ! smile ... I like respect .... thanks for meeting one of my ENs ~ dance2

Whatever inspired you to write this salute does not matter. What matters is that YOU speak your mind with conviction and courage.

Now I want to say - lets argue ideas and concepts - let's not pound each other :twobyfour: while doing that.

But it's all OK ~ really.
