Particularly since he posted his <a href=\"http:\/\/davensjournal.com\/wordpress\/archives\/2006\/01\/thinking-too-much\">blog entry from today<\/a>, at the FebNo forums. Ya&#8217;ll gotta read this. If I haven&#8217;t said it lately, or at least publicaly, Daven is like, a god or something. I totally agree with the rape comments, having dealt with the fallout with my kid. And hey, I do consider what happened to her, to be rape.<\/p>\n<p>On another note, I have to admit that I felt a little let down after the divorce party. Not unhappy, not that huge &#8220;shouldn&#8217;t there be more to this?&#8221; let down.<\/p>\n<p>I realized there was one person missing from that celebration, the one person that I should have been sharing this with. The one person that made me find myself again. Over two years have gone by since I said goodbye (and at the time, I meant goodbye, not see ya later). On the 19th, I dreamt he came home. When I woke up last Friday morning, I could feel him everywhere in the house, all around me &#8211; a huge, heavy weight on my chest where he&#8217;d put his hand, telling me he&#8217;d always be there. He should have been here. Not there &#8211; not in my heart, not in my memories. Here.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m pissed off that he wasn&#8217;t, and yet, I wouldn&#8217;t pick up the phone at any point in the last two years to call him, at least not directly. When I said goodbye, I said goodbye. I told him then to have a good life &#8211; it was the most affable, beneficial and spirit-rending goodbye I&#8217;ve ever been a part of. It&#8217;s been&#8230;well, too long since he and I spoke, and one of the last things he&#8217;d asked was how soon the divorce would go through. Little did I know it would be so long!<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s done now, and my freedom only cost me a lot of my empathy, a lot of my emotions and a lot of the very spirituality I have spent my life seeking. Still I seek, and I know that won&#8217;t be over until that tiny piece of <strong>me<\/strong> is returned home. <\/p>\n<p>Can I only say I didn&#8217;t know? Hindsight is 20-20, even for the partially blind? No. I have to admit it. I didn&#8217;t understand what She had in mind when She brought him to me. I went against Her wishes and ended up lost in a sea of unfinished business. I know now, and yeah &#8211; he was right, She was right. I&#8217;m kicking myself. I was wrong. Love isn&#8217;t just a word.<\/p>\n<p><em>But maybe we could pretend it is, just for a little while longer?<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been popping by the occasional blog and since Daven is doing FebNo too, I thought I&#8217;d slip past his pages and take a look.
