I hope this will help purge your soul of the anger and resentment that you seem to be harboring. I know when I posted about being hurt by others, it seemed to lift that anger and hurt away from me. I have since deleted those posts so I would no longer dwell on them. <br /><br />There is nothing in the world better than forgiveness...both for the person who is receiving forgiveness, and even more for the person who is granting it. It lifts a load of bad emotions that rip into your inner being right out of you. But, then you have to try to forget what you were so hurt and then became angry over.You need to bury these memories. I don't know that you can ever forget, but maybe if you forgive, you could build new memories that would replace these angry feelings that are eating you alive. I am speaking out of experience here. When you nurse these angry feelings, petting them and going over them, you are hurting yourself more...not the people who hurt you. Please try to find it in your heart to not only forgive, but to go to the extreme here to put all this behind you....and replace it will good memories. <br /><br />Didn't you remarry? <br /><br />Leave It To Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10510401202733633537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8123851797673892305.post-27749103841179826092013-03-31T18:50:02.484-04:002013-03-31T18:50:02.484-04:00Thinking of you today.

It...I hate whats happening to the land around you. It's so sad. Your past Easters are also sad and I understand your dislike of the holiday. I was at work today and we've never made a big deal about family celebration on this day, so Bob was alone in church and afterward. He said it was a nice relaxing day!Marihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06289456727508305342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8123851797673892305.post-39515777067071108992013-03-31T16:03:34.109-04:002013-03-31T16:03:34.109-04:00Happened by your blog. Appreciate your honesty. ...Happened by your blog. Appreciate your honesty. You had a rough go of it intensified by ‘best friend’ issue as well as both sets of parents being close friends. In the long run forgiveness is less exhausting as resentment lasts 24/7 and continues ad infinitum, sapping your energy. Most people wouldn’t have managed the balance you have now with your ex-spouse, former best friend, and family. Kudos to you.<br />Fracking is a concern. I have followed the news around our home town (your current one) and thought about the lack of zoning, etc. It’s a huge issue that people tend to minimize until it’s in their backyard. There is a lot of drilling out here in Colorado but more restrictions are being put in place by both the state and local governments. I hope something gets put in place in your area or there might me some unintended consequences.<br />I also don’t enjoy Easter Sunday at church. Odd since we are active in our church and usually present. Instead we went out for breakfast and took a nice hike.<br />ParentalUnitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13398180814092341190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8123851797673892305.post-38273600571361471202013-03-31T15:54:26.937-04:002013-03-31T15:54:26.937-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.ParentalUnitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13398180814092341190noreply@blogger.com
