My Life Is Mine: 07/13/09

Hi malcolm

Going through a divorve is so painful. It ranks in the top three in reasons that cause stress. You must be under enormous stress. And under the influence of so many conflicting emotions. Its no wonder you are confused.

However the divorce is done with (I presume). I don't when you got divorced, i.e. are you very recently divorced or was it a while ago? If its been recent, just pack away that sheet and deal with it when your wounds have had time to heal. Time does heal at least partially and maybe after a while you will able to face this article with not so much emotional confusion. No need to send it back to her either, I suppose if she had wanted it she would have kept it.

If keeping the sheet is going to keep making you miserable then there really is no point in hanging on to it. A lot does depend on the circumstances of your divorce - I mean why exactly you got divorced. If its just one of those gradually falling out of love things, then why not just keep it to remind you that you were fortunate to have loved and been loved once.. Even if it did'nt last. It will always be one of life's precious memories.. But if looking at it is going to cause you to be swamped with negative emotions then there is no point in hanging on to it. like I said if the divorce is recent pack it away and tell yourself you will look at it a year later and then decide. When the intensity has gone down then you will be able to figure out things a littel better.

Good luck to you in a tough time in your life.

Stay calm and just take care of yourself.

Regards

Sangita

I am recently divorced and as a result had to put most of my things in storage

my wife would prefer I did not go into the house unless I really had to and as I trusred her it was ok that she put everything in boxes.

Of course i did not know what I would find she only ever wrote fragile on some boxes most were unmarked.

I had asked her to marry me, driven hundreds of miles to see her , she did not know I was coming but I had heard she was upset and I just got in the car and went to her.

And I even suprised myself when I arrived, uppon seeing her I knew I wanted her in my life forever

so I got down on my knees and asked her to marry me.

I had taken her out beforehand to have a quiet beer and a nice walk along the sand and she had cheered up considerably.

She was expecting me to stay but I told her that I would have to go back as I had some work commitments, I was really looking for a nicer place for us to live in.

And she was completely bowled over by what I had asked of her.

So it took a long time for her to answer me, I am a patient man and I told her to make sure she gave me her true answer.

I got home one afternoon and pinned up on one wall was a white bedsheet with yes written in big letters

painted on.

My wedding day was the happiest day of my life and everyone who knew her said they had never seen her happy as she was that day also..

So now you all know what this sheet 's significance is.

It dissapeared after that day and I thought she may have thrown it out , I dont really know. it was hers and after the divorce I never thought about it.

I found it today in a box of odds and ends, and here is my question, as i cannot think what to do with it.

how do I make this thing that was so important to me but is now just confusing me, into a good thing?

Do I throw it away, I am not sure I could bear to do that, do I give it back?

How do I make this into something good again? It stirs so many emotions, both good and bad, i could use some ideas.

Smiles

Malcolm
