Dave, what you posted bears repeating ~

If we lose hope and remain with pessimism, that is the greatest failure. So, in spite of difficulties, remain with optimism.

I'm going to print that out for daily reading. Thank you!!

Grace, you sound like you are moving forward in a spectacular way!! I am SO happy for you!

So you have a basis for comparison ~ I haven't sent out Christmas cards since my husband left 14 years ago. The years after were my time of hoarding crisis, not a time of clearing like you are.

One thing I did do like you was read the Bible. Most of it I can't make sense of. But I marked every passage where I felt God's love and protection and they kept me going.

You ARE getting stronger every day! I love the idea of a new Thanksgiving recipe for a new beginning!

Please keep us posted, that kind of success energizes and supports me in my recovery. :)

Someone gave me the last of an Insight from the Dalai Lama calendar they were not using. You are living out the quote for today.

If we lose hope and remain with pessimism, that is the greatest failure. So, in spite of difficulties, remain with optimism.

And you have some extra space! YEAH!!!!!

Hi all, Managed to get the Christmas lights up. I enjoy seeing them and sharing them with others. Maybe they will bring a little joy to someone. I will never give up but I must say it is difficult not having my family together. It is all about family to me. When my husband walked out and split everyone up , creating chaos and confusion it gets a little more difficult. I still have not gotten over the hurt in knowing that he could not throw ANYTHING away, (except me) Yep, I am the only thing that he could just get rid of. One thing though, I was able, for the first time since I have been w married to throw away many non functioning light sets. If they didnt light...no saving them for bulbs.. Out they went and he wasnt there to hurt me for it... I guess that was a step forward for me. I have to learn how to be free. but for now, We are doing fine and taking more time to talk to God. Just like the word says.. My weakest days are my strongest. I believe I am getting stronger every day. The support here is wonderful! Happy Thanksgiving, Maybe I will look for a new recipe for our new beginning.
