Strength
I am watching the beginning of a transformation of my friend... from a passive watcher who worries and hurts to a woman who stands up for herself and her needs, and goes on to do what she is required to do, even when she thinks she can't.
She took the first extremely difficult steps the other day to begin fighting for her marriage. She says she wants to be happy and married- right now she is living with a paper-legal roommate who is supposed to be a spouse. Her husband is an alcoholic, and she is hoping there is a means to an end of it. If an addict has to hit rock bottom before cleaning up- she is now doing her damnedest to show him the way down to that abyss of self-realization.
I wish her love and luck, and I am here to offer all the support she needs.... and him too. I think if this all works out it will be something great to actually get to know the man who has been our "friend" for years, but I know nothing about except that he has a drinking problem.
Love to ya A... Stay strong.
