Hi Lauren..........
Just a special note from me to you.......thanks for all your posts to all those out there still struggling with their abusers.....I don't post much but I read ALOT. And I see how you try to answer each and everyone that comes on this board and give them words of encouragement and examples from your own life. You and I are decades apart in age and live in different countries but the support from each and everyone keeps us going in the darkest of times. And you are to be thanked for your constant and continuous efforts to help others. You go girl!!!!
I am sitting here today, on Thanksgiving -here in the US, my kids are 1500 miles away from me but you know what??? This is the BEST Thanksgiving I have had in SO long....probably 20 years.....because I am at peace. I am cooking and all that and for the first time in ages........I'm not worried if things aren't perfect.....its not about pleasing HIM anymore. YAHOO!!!!!!!!!!
Have a great day girl.......I have seen your story and watched you heal......keep up the good work.....

This is my new favorite Keith Urban song! I can't stop listening to it and I'm gonna go buy the CD today. I remember with my abuser, he hated country!! So I didn't listen to it very much because HE hated it meaning I shouldn't like it either! AHH. Well now I am back in the swing of things... I am a huge country fan again... I am hitting up the local country bar tonight and I can't wait!!
Have a Great day Laptop :)

Just a message to ALL our abusers
STUPID BOYS!!!!!!
You know, when I was a kid, I didn't much care for country western music....my father LOVED it,but that was many many moons ago. I grew up in the 70's.....age of drugs,sex and rock and roll....and it wasn't cool. But as the years have passed and music has evolved it has become my favorite style....
My dear father became ill with cancer and after 3 years of fighting the disease, passed away this last February. When I saw him the last time, it was pure joy to sit down and share his love of country with him. We sat and talked about life in general and one of his last talks with me was about how it was time to get up and get out of this marriage and be happy.
Six weeks after his funeral, I packed up my youngest daughter and moved 1500 miles away from my old man and I haven't regretted it one bit. I truly believe my father has been guiding me, giving me strength and showing me the way to freedom and happiness. I also have reconnected with a childhood friend that was ALWAYS at my house and that apparently always had a crush on me and we have been spending alot of time together. He doesn't know what possessed him to try to contact me again.....but I do, it was daddy. There are things that happen to us and there is no logical explanations to them...... it can only be a divine intervention by God and those we have lost in this life.....I have been amazed at the 'coincidences' since my father's passing.......
Another one of my theme songs.....for the last five years....has been "Moving On" by Rascall Flatts.......I started to listen to that one around 9/11 and it gave me courage at a VERY bad time in my marriage....the beginning of this whole thing I believe.
Have a great day everyone.....got to get ready for work......

I also believe you leaving and moving away from the unhealthy relationship has something to do with your father. I am happy to hear that you have a new friend around :) The last time I spoke to my abuser was actually my grandmas birthday. I believe that she has something to do with me being strong enough to say NO MORE. She passed away a few years ago and I believe she gave me the courage and strength to move on. I haven't talked to him since.
