That’s when I realized: My spouse was gone. But my marriage was still with me. My marriage was with me until I decided it wasn’t. That was in my control. This thought strengthened me. It hadn’t come to me before, not like that. Would the thought have come to me, without pushing myself to see him like this? Perhaps not. I have discovered that when I pushed at life, things opened in strange ways. I did not know that before all this. Application!
