Reply #20: It was the worst year of my life too

[flamingyouth]

My husband and I separated, then he committed suicide. Two of my cats died. George W. Bush is going to be in the White House for four fucking more years.

However, on the bright side, I realized how many true friends I have and how many people stood by me and supported me when I thought I couldn't go on any longer. I discovered a new strength within myself, and through the tough times I've been given a new appreciation for what's good in life too. Best of all, I'm in love with a wonderful man who will be here in six short days. :)

I'm sorry for the sadness and difficulties you've all faced this year. I'm grateful for this community of friends here and for all the support we give one another. :grouphug:
