Freedom (12/28/02rc) It was always another night of twisted unsuccessful flight It was always another day of trying to stay out of your way Years spent planning my getaway Tears turned to resentment Always craving contentment Anger turned to hate I wouldn’t allow your addition to become my fate You thought I would take it for life And now you no longer have a wife You blame it all on me But that’s okay, because I am happier than I thought I had a right to be So sleep with you beer buddy ~Cheers to 2002 and the freedom in divorce!~ |

It's hard to pick up and leave everything you've ever know and freedom never comes easy as I well know. Congratulations for the courage to leave a hurtful situation and the strength to go on. I left a abusive marriage of 17 years 4 years ago on Jan 5th, my birthday present to myself(Jan 4th is my birthday) and although times haven't always been easy, I've never regreted my decision. If you ever need an open ear, please feel free to e-mail me . Best wishes for a better New Year ![]() Ruth |
