Questions Answered

Well, I started this blog a couple years ago, and it has been a tremendous source of encouragment for me. I would like to thank all of you that read, and commented, and encouraged me along the way.

These past few years have been difficult, and I used the url "Stockdales Question" because when I started, I really was trying to find out the answer to those questions famously posed by Adm. Stockdale. "Who am I?" and "Why am I here?"

Lots has happened since I started, and I received so so much help and support from all of you. I appreciate it more than I can really express. I've managed to further my education and relocate to a great city to attend law school, something I always wanted to do. In the process, I have answered those questions and doubts about myself. Not that I never doubt anymore, but I have realized that I am stronger than I thought possible when I began "taking steps".

This blog also had a starring role in my divorce and custody proceedings, so if anyone at the courthouse was bored, they got to share the excitement of my blog posts entered into the record. Once I knew my ex had discovered the blog, I no longer felt like I could share my thoughts and feelings as freely.

Since then I have mainly shared only those things which I wanted him to see, and not very much of that!
I guess everyone has figured out where this is going. To my friends, I say thank you. To my ex- well, I think he knows what I'd say to him.
