WOW !!!

My estranged spouse told me yesterday that he was sent an anonymous text advising him to check out my Facebook posting which lead him to my blog.  I told him last year that I started a blog but he hadn't read it until the other day for the first time.  He said he remembers that I told him but he didn't know what it was about.  Whether the "anonymous" person meant it to cause harm or not, God allowed this to be a great thing !  A moment of enlightenment for him!  I will not share everything he said because that is between he and I.  However, I will share that he said he finally realized how unhappy I had been for all of those years and he thanked me for hanging in there as long as I did.  All of these years that I have been talking, explaining, fussing, crying, etc. I was never truly understood until he read every last post that I had written over the last year.  All I can say is WOW !!!!!!  I gained a little more insight into his psyche and some things make more sense to me now.  
I am glad for him and I pray that this is the beginning of a new chapter for him in his life, a time for self assessment and continued growth.  That is what I have been doing during this time and it has truly been a great thing for me! I have said in previous postings that we both played a part in the  break down of the marriage.  The lesson that I have learned is that even though you think a person is listening and understands you, they actually may not.  Even if they say they understand.   Just like it is important to know the love language of your spouse or significant other, it is important to understand their communication language as well.  Now it is just not me Moving Forward, we both are.
