Dear Samuel This morning I had one of those moments that I did not feel like "digging" anymore; I could throw away the shovel for good, and forever. I tried to talk to my husband (luckily kids were at their grandma) and it did not work. Actually, he got a bit upset; thought that I was criticizing him again. Anyway, it was a dark saturday morning, and I wanted it to be a good saturday morning. After breakfast I took sometime for myself and watched your new video on the "well". What a nice analogy! It gave me lots of hope again to go on. I think I will go on crying a bit more, maybe another 15 minutes, but afterwards I will start my day, and hopefully I will manage to do some digging today. Or at least will figure out where the shovel is ;-)
