Hello to my EAS ladies and gents,

I've been very busy in RL and have only had moments to pop on the board and read...not much time for thoughtful posts and I'm sorry for that. I am happy to read of all the realizations, moments of truth and light bulb thoughts that many of you are experiencing. These are important revelations and ones we all come to in our own time. I am sorry for those of you who are still suffering through the raw emotional pain of ending. I can only promise you it will get better.

This healing journey is a long and arduous process. Please keep in mind that healing does not mean "getting over" xAP. It means working toward self actualization, and experiencing pure and honest self growth.

You will be missed around here, but you are not the only one taking a hiatus. I know of several others, so possibly it's that time of year. ;-) I know that with the weather getting nicer soon it's going to be more quiet....always is when summer comes, although a new influx of posters pop up around that time too. It goes in cycles so I am preparing myself for the next round. ;-)

I loved that you gave the advice to "be patient with yourselves." I wonder where you heard that before? ;-)

Take good care of yourself and be proud for all that you have accomplished.

AT2,

You will be missed.

I bet you know what part of your post I love the most…yep it’s:

<>

You’ve come a long way and have an amazing story of overcoming to share. So I hope you will pop back in from time to time and offer some sage advice to the Newbies. You’re a legend around these here parts now.

I’m honored that I had a chance to watch you grow and share in your journey during your time here on EAS.

Best wishes, much love and big hugs,

Whether you think you can or you think you can't you are probably right. A parrot can repeat what it has learned but the mark of true intelligence is applying what is learned.

Wow always

Your post was amazing. Exactly what I needed today. This is hard but soooo worth it. I totally get what you are saying now, about learning more about yourself and growing as a soul. It's not about getting over exAP- they were just the latest symptom of a much bigger issue within us.
I wish you love and happiness and I really hope you pop in when you can.
I wil miss your lovely and inspirational posts

Always

I totally agree also with your comments about loving your husband more now than for a very long time.. it is amazing when the fog lifts and you allow yourself to actually 'feel' RL how naturally it all

New Choices, New Chapter,

Alwayst I will miss your thoughtful posts during your time away from the board. You have given me awsome support and I wish you the very best and look forward to your return as you continue down this incredible journey.

Always.....

You will sure be missed around here. I know I am just beginning this journey again, and have to say that I am finding is a little bit easier this time around knowing what I know and expecting the feelings I am having. I want to thank you so much for your support, your knowledge and your neverending words of advice :) I wish you all the best on this healing journey. It is so great to hear that your relationship with H is on the mend and will only stregthen as each day passes. There will be many obstacles along the way but with all you have learned here and through councelling, you will do just fine. Good Luck Always... I wish you peace and happiness :)

Healing

My lovely friends, I'm not LEAVING. I just can't be quite as active cuz I got to get on with RL. But I know where the life raft is and I will throw out safety lines as often as I can. Love you all.
