Estrangements are awful

I have allowed myself to grieve, but I'm starting to grow tired of feeling sad--which I think is a healthy sign.  I am grateful for my health, but sadness has kept me feeling low and unmotivated.  I became aware I was going to sleep in a grim mood and then not wanting to face the new day in the morning.  That's no way to live, so I'm working on my attitude.  I keep reminding myself that baby steps are okay, as long as I am going in a positive direction.  I hope in the future to be reunited with DS and GC, but I am not about to blunder into any attempts to make that happen right now.  I'm looking forward to the coming of spring.  :)   

Real and cyber hugs help!  Thank you.   :-*

Wishing you better days ahead, Marina.  Spring is just around the corner, and a good time for renewal. The days are getting longer and the sun is getting brighter.  I'm hoping for more joy in your life.  ((hugs))
