Every moment you spend dreading the imminent future is time wasted not enjoying his presence. <br /><br />I could wax poetic here...<br />(breathe in his after shave, memorize his hair follicles, learn to time your breathing to his)<br />...but that gets awkward really quickly because I know him and you. But you can tell where I'm going. ;-)<br /><br />Just live the moment. "No day but today."<br />I think this might be the point in your life when you need to starting looking at life as a journey and not a destination. Right now, you're passing through "with my husband" land. Be 100% THERE. You have someone who loves you, who chose you, who liked it AND put a ring on it (unlike several people I could name). Don't think about "D-land" until it's here. "There's only now. There's only this...No other path, no other way..."<br /><br />I believe you that it's hard, but do your best to redirect your focus.<br /><br /><3najah-amatullahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16508479743670397830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2666801840808615065.post-39351977558706412322010-04-20T11:08:26.533-05:002010-04-20T11:08:26.533-05:00Ugh I'm sorry your bro was so clueless. Yes, ...Ugh I'm sorry your bro was so clueless. Yes, as an Army wife we all know that deployments happen, but getting an actual date & *knowing* when they're leaving is a completely different story. *hugs* If it helps, Pre-D was honestly one of the hardest parts for us. You don't get used to it, but you learn to deal once you can get into a routine (well, that was our experience).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
