Been reading your stories for awhile now...listening to this journey that is filled with pain and challenge; you've captured the incredible heaviness of this day -- but this line is just amazing writing...truth is, it all is amazing, so terribly sad.

It almost feels like an invasion of privacy reading this -to be in a moment of such solemn sadness witnessing a disunion that I hoped wouldn't come.

It's grieving the loss of that "entwined existence", as you so beautifully wrote, that for those of us who are married know so deeply what incredible sacrifice and effort it takes to keep going...

I hope this new journey will not be a seen as a dissolution of the effort, love you did put forth. Out of fear of saying the wrong thing, let me close and say --

I wish you much,much peace and resolve in the coming days. 🌷
