In darkness there is always hope.

To those who responded to my last post: thank you.

to him. I know I deserve much better as does any human in that sort of situation. Nothing I do could ever even justify physical violence. I don’t care how much I nag or how anal I am about things that is no reason to raise your fist or throw something at me or shove me. Nothing.

You grew up in an environment where no one around you had a healthy relationship so you don’t know any better. I forgive you for that but I can no longer overlook the physical violence. I can’t.

As my dear Chrissey said, we both need therapy. Well I’m not going through it with you. You have had your chance, several in fact. Life is to short to be with someone as awful as you.

When I close my eyes I don’t see this life. I see one along the coast filled with people who love me just the way I am and who support ever decision I make. That’s a wonderful life.

I don’t need a man to make me happy or help me decide my own self worth, I just need me…. and my kitties of course.
