[QUOTE="so ready to live, post: 705574, member: 20054"] Hi Lil & Jabber. I'm so sorry your year started so difficultly. It's just wrong. The crux of it for so many of us. In December (and in truth many times for the last several years), when my son is once again facing eviction, I have anguished. I have filled my days, thoughts and mind with the "what ever will he do thoughts". Trying to sort out rationally an irrational situation is futile. I was surprised one morning when I realized I had choices. It was suddenly a great relief to me to think "so what? if he is evicted I could buy him shelter for whatever period of time I felt necessary" That was relief just to think through. Somehow it was an answer to my worry. Would I have done it? Will I have to do it? Who knows? But just to think [I]if this-then this[/I] helped me. It bought me peace to just know I could do something. You have been so much more than generous with him. Many of us would sign on that two year plan! These both so true. Go on into this year with less fear, whatever happens will happen and you can handle it whichever way gives you peace. PS. I liked your laundry list of what you had given him-it's good to know this, it keeps us honest about the past. But it is the past. Learn from whatever you can and let go of the rest, THERE ARE BRIGHTER DAYS AHEAD. Prayers. [/QUOTE]
