[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 647047, member: 13542"] You are a very dear soul HLM, you have a way of speaking about this horrific landscape we inhabit in ways that make it appear more neutral, doable, rich in it's textures and turns and bumps and ditches.........seeing that the walk through is an integral part of the journey of life......something to recognize and deal with and then to get back to the job of living life, the rest of it........that this difficult child world is not the totality of our lives.........but a portion...........and one in which we can allow to be in the hands of the person orchestrating their own life. It's good to talk to your husband, having an ally on this path is an important feature, someone to mull over the next strange choice with. I'm happy you have each other. Reading along I was struck with my own journey through this odd maze and how my recent practice of letting go of the past and leaving the future out there and staying as much as I can right here in the present moment, keeps these kinds of events, like what is going on with your son right now, in a different perspective, it doesn't hit me with the force it used to........it seems that is true for you as well. Is it? I can hold on to that neutrality and remember that, "this too shall pass." It really reduces the suffering. HLM, this too shall pass. Some moments are tough, thankfully we can move beyond them and recall the lightness of being...........hang in there.......we're here, we get it. HLM, as they used to say in NY, "[I]take it light."[/I] [/QUOTE]
