Thank you, Diana. Shifting my perspective made me feel so much better. I continue to use this method whenever I find myself stuck in negative self-talk. It works wonders!

I'm not a fan of the traditional BC origins of marriage, having said that I tip my hat to anybody brave enough to elope ^_^.

Your perspective is refreshing, candid, and fucking freeing. Kudos to you for finding a strain of harmony amid the dying light of your former marriage xx.

I hadn’t thought of it as being freeing, but you are exactly right. Removing that weight was indeed freeing. I appreciate your comment!

The what ifs, although simple, it's so powerful.. I was contemplating about a specific type of fear the other day and the what ifs knocked some sense in me! Reading this only make me more sure about its power :)

Excellent! The what ifs do have power. They seem to stir up new possibilities I hadn’t considered before. Thanks so much for your comment, Adrian.
