Life...It's not that bad.

Well....Life is good. The picture is from a recent camping trip that I enjoyed with my new bride. I have been very busy lately with all types of things. I am in a new marriage and it is wonderful. I never thought marriage could be this way. I have been married before but finally finding the perfect one definitely makes a big difference. She shares the same loves that I have like church, singing, camping and just hanging out. My lady never cusses, drinks or does anything to disrespect me. She accepts me for who I am. In the past, I thought I was married to a person I could pour my heart out to and share my deepest thoughts and secrets. I found out as our relationship turned south that all the deep things I had shared with her would be used against me. And believe me they were and in some regard still are being used against me. She blamed me for the failure of our marriage. I want to say up front that part of the problem was mine but she owned some of it as well. My ex-wife has misrepresented me in so many hurtful ways. I never thought she would. Not a day goes by that I don't think of it. Lets just say she has tried to chew me up and spit me out. My father once told me that she had a hold on me. I laughed at the time but I realize that was true. I needed a true friend to help me further my needed changes and I was on a pretty good track but my ex-wife would not wait and be patient. She definitely has her emotional hang ups of her own to deal with. I went through things and tolerated things with her that I never should have. I guess she did the same with me as well. Oh well, I am definitely glad its over and part of moving on with my life is learning to write or talk about my terrible experiences with her. She always makes herself out to be an angel of deliverance when she brought me mostly anguish and concern then blamed it all on me.

Whew! That's enough of that for now. My life is slowly turning upward and I can feel the positive changes in the air. A word of advice.....be 100% sure before the vows are said. Family input is important. They can see and sense things more than the love struck groom. I wish I had listened to all my family and friends regarding the ex. However, for now I can say that life is SWEET!

Write at you later.....
