Marcia,
Thank you. This sounds like a good way to deal with life's overwhelming disappointments. And your last two lines deeply touched my heart. I DO deserve what I don't have right now. But in my heart I know that what I am going through is a test of my strength, my faith and my courage. I hope I pass it.

I read your Blog very carefully and am only responding because I did so. What I say next may help you and it may not; I hope it does. I've lived a long time and the biggest lesson I've learned, and the hardest to learn, is that nine times out of ten people will dissapoint you. Not at first and maybe not for a long time but eventually they will. This applies to family as well as friends. The secret is to expect to be dissapointed and then be overjoyed when you're not. There's that one percent that will be there for you no matter what. I pray you find them; you deserve to.
