“I wrote for my life that morning, though I was chronicling a death.” Oh, Jess.

You are a woman of character and grace. God bless you and fill you with His peace. Love you.

Jessica, it was so wonderful to hear you and Shane play on Sunday night. It made my birthday amazing. I really admire your courage that through the adversity, and the attack on your family, you can still praise God, and rely on him. I don’t know what I would do without Him. Your writing is beautiful, and so are you. I can’t even begin to tell you during the length of time we have known eachother, what a blessing you have been. Continue being a transparent person…through your blog, and through your life. You are awesome! I love you.

Jessica, just so you know, a lot of times people’s names at the beginning of their comments are hotlinked to their blogs, so you can just click on those if they have a blog.

thanks, Jim…and yeah, I do know how that feels…I’ve had similar dark and very pain-inspired thoughts of just not wanting to be alive any longer. And I’ve always been someone to love life, so it’s been a terrifying shock to suddenly feel that way. But yes, already I’ve seen glimpses of the other side…so, thank you for reminding me of it:)

“Someone once told me that going through divorce was like having open heart surgery without any anesthesia.” Yup. That’s EXACTLY what it feels like. I didn’t want to tell you that earlier, but I guess you already know now, so there it is.
When I was coming back from the last meeting I ever had with my first wife (getting papers signed), I was driving on I-495, the Washington Beltway. I really felt like crashing my car into one of the overpass abutments. At around 65 mph. I figured THAT would make the pain stop. The only thing that stopped me was not knowing whether it would work or not. So I kept on driving, and wound up in Colorado and met Trish.
All I can do, Jess, is keep encouraging you and praying for you. And I will.
