How do you prove you are willing to do everything you can for someone, and that you've changed when the outside forces you can't control make you seem like you haven't.
My son's mother had suddenly changed her tone on texts and we were having dinner and watching a movie. All very friendly. Friendlier than we had been in a long time. Suddenly a noise. she runs to see what it is and comes back with my cell phone, tosses it in my lap and says "you better answer her she seems mad." Goodbye followed shortly after. My awkward attempt at a goodbye was "sooo, um have you met anyone?" "No I haven't met anyone, not really" was her reply as she hugged and kissed our son farewell. WHAT AN IDIOT I AM!!!
I can see the thought formulating in her mind. 'He's only after me because he's afraid I've met someone and he wants me to answer him because he doesn't want to move forward without a final chance'. I can see this because four months ago I DID DO that and she egged it on "go be with someone else" But, when it happened she became so mad, our peaceful separation and midnight rendezvous became few and far between and more angry. I had betrayed her...I guess I was supposed to have stayed happy with just sex.
Today, I thought we had taken a step towards being friends. Spending time together was good until an unwarranted, unwanted text message ruined the moment. Though looking back on it, it wasn't particularly a perfect moment. I guess nothing ever really was.
I missed my Copaxone injection today. All I wanted to do was sleep once our night together ended and it seemed like my son was on his way as well. So we slept. He's still peacefully asleep while his daddy stays up, since two a.m., morning the emotional lose of his mother.
Let's touch on some basics:
BE WELL: When you are healthy, even when you are fighting a chronic illness embrace it. Grab those moments with both hands.
LIVE WELL: Live up to your abilities and beyond if you can. You never know when they'll no longer be there.
NO REGRETS: Regret will kill you as sure as disease. If you have a doubt about the morality of what you are doing. If you'd be ashamed if your child DID what you are doing or about to do. Don't.
BE WELL! LIVE WELL!! NO REGRETS!!
