Thanks again for your honesty and for your ability to abstract the challenges of your life into the issues that we all care about. It is hard to know how much the circumstances of our youth affect us, but we know that it does profoundly shape who we are. I have also wondered how much my relationship with my father shaped my perception of God. I have always felt much closer to my mother, my dad is a great person that I appreciate, but he is so different from me that I have never felt the connectedness that I have experienced in other relationships. -- Vance Heidi, this is an amazing post.

As a "separated" mother. I can only hope my husband gets out of his mid-life crisis and comes home. My parents never divorced (strict catholics) and at times, would have. I do not believe in divorce. Again, it's the catholic in me. I married Jeff in front of God, I spoke my vows in front of God. I will forever be married to Jeff. God, I don't want my children to grow up with those feelings :( Heidi – thank you for sharing your inner feelings. As a “separated” mother.

God, I don’t want my children to grow up with those feelings :(
