I have this anxiety when it comes to blogging. I think that what happened to my family nearly five years ago was so traumatizing that I felt utterly exposed in so many areas that blogging could no longer be one of them. I recently came to the realization that my kids are almost to the age where they will be online and they will read my blog and they will have questions. I want to have answers. So here I am, trying to begin again.
This past week I have thought a lot about how grateful I am that I am still here, in this marriage, with Flavio. We were both hurt so much. It is so hard to come back from collapse and near divorce, but somehow we have managed. There has had to have been tremendous push and pull and give and take. More so than I ever imagined.
I was able to share with my best friends this week, how good it feels to finally be on the other side. A lot of times people talk about hitting rock bottom. We are finally on the top of the mountain we had to climb in order to get out of the bottom, and we are sledding down, and happy and laughing more.
Things are not perfect. Things are still very hard and challenging. Life is still life. But we are still doing it together. For that I am so happy.
And I am so happy for you. Truly. xoxo
ReplyDeleteI admire and adore you. So happy for you both.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't be more happy for you! This brings my heart joy.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear your voice again and that you're on the other side. The last few years have been frequent trial by fires and yet each time o get to the other side it is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI have appreciated your honesty as we all go through hard things and none of us are perfect. One of the hardest things to do is to share that you have problems in your life. It helps others to know that they are not alone and not so different and that there is hope. I love you Kim and I am so happy for you and your family.
