Thankful

There is really so very much to be thankful for. I am learning that. To admit a fault, I am actually thankful for my husband, extremely. What brought me to that conclusion? I actually considered the possibility of leaving and trying to date other men. I gave it real and serious thought. I have realized that I am petrified of men. I have not made the greatest of choices and the odds of me finding another monster are pretty good. In my life, I've found men who have used and abused me, raped me, stalked me, and now shattered my heart. As I think about and look at the possibility of what I could find out there, I am actually drawn closer to my husband. He really is a good man who just made a mistake. A rather gigantic mistake, but just a mistake. He is not a bad man and I have never thought of him as so. So I am thankful for him and the love that he has for me.

And I am thankful for my ability to express my emotions. I work all day with children who don't know how to say what they feel and have no other option but tantrums.
