It’s A Web

Making verbalabusejournals.com is a healing process for me. Writing the pages, updating my entries (both past and present), sharing resources that have helped me, etc., serves to remind me that even now I struggle in the web of abuse. I sometimes feel like a butterfly re-cocooned in spidery fibers waiting to be the main course.

But at the same time, I can see a light at the end of the tunnel. There’s a possiblity that the Army will force my husband into counseling, and that is the light I see for HIM. Maybe as he (un?)willingly follows that light, the light at the end of MY TUNNEL will shine brighter.

I have to remember that MY LIGHT is separate from HIS LIGHT. It is still my hope that we come out of this together, but I no longer hope that we both follow the same light. Creating the website is showing me that it is important that we each go our own way, even if those paths seperate. I have to be me, and I have to end up where Spirit wants me, not where my husband wants me.
