I've asked myself the same question quite a bit this year: Where have I ignored reality in order to comfort myself? As I become more realistic about my life and my struggles, I find that people around me want me to go back to my rose-colored glasses. It makes them uncomfortable, but that's just too bad isn't it? This is my self-defining time, too. So glad to have met a kindred spirit...Sugar Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14350485179045324078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8345462981115809499.post-78331832027526116242008-07-25T10:04:00.000-07:002008-07-25T10:04:00.000-07:00Great quote.

The sleepy drool on my pillow was much more soothing. <BR/><BR/>Great post.

My husband is relapsing and for the first time I'm standing my ground when he argues that "porn isn't that big of a deal." He's said that on and off for three years and I've always aquiesced for a while. For the first time, I'm trusting my instincts.
