Love and Happiness

I was in love with the same man for five years, he was my everything. We embarked on the great journey of young adulthood. We went everywhere and did everything together, he consumed the person I was. When we apart I always thought of him. We got married early, and the relationship I thought was so solid in foundation begin to fall. All common goal was lost I pursued a college and he pursed alcohol, gambling and cheating. He was not ready to commit, but it was too late we had been married for three years and I was getting depressed. I cried at night and smiled in the day. I decided to divorce him, as we began to live separate lives I missed him. This loss was inevitable part of my journey of life for all of us. Their was no quick relief program that make grief less painful. My way out was God, he was my shield, carrying all my worries and fears. I become a avid reader of the bible in search for something greater and I found it. Great is God's mercy toward me. When we mess up he still love me the same, under all conditions and no contract stipulations.

  1. I lost something that I one time meant everything.

  2. I hate that happened. But as I have been told... It is better to have loved and lost than to never love at all. Sometimes those are the hardest decisions, but you have to make them for your sanity and for your self. I have a lot of friends who have been through this same type of thing and there is no easy way to do it.
    It's horrible because, I know in my friends case, they loved the person just not the things that they were doing and they had to cut there losses. I seems like you are doing well! Good luck!

  3. What a great post. I admire you for your faith and determination. Congratulations to you for making the right decisions, even when they are the hard ones. God does have a plan for all of us, and our life makes much more sense when we let Him lead the way. But you're right - he loves us even when we mess up!

    Best of luck in everything,
