Hang on

You are hurting.. I know you are. It's so painful to hear you tell your story. I don't know if I can help you. I can listen to you and give you some advice, but in the end, it's up to you. There are decisions to be made. A future lays ahead of you, but it's up to you to decide which way you are heading. Those decisions are probably going to be the most difficult ones you ever had to make. But there's no other way. Things are just not working out the way you planned them. Is that your fault? Is it his? Is it a bad combination of both? Who knows.. But we all know it's not working. Not for you, not for your partner, not for the children. Please take care of yourself. You are at the end of your rope. But did you know there are other ropes? There are solutions - there is a way out. If only you could find the courage to think things over..
Don't burn all your bridges behind you. There's light in the darkness. Don't let all of the darkness take over. Please don't.. Hang on. Don't slide off that slippery rope. Reach out for help and give up some of that pride. It won't hurt to come down a couple of steps and give in. For you. For your family. For the sake of love.. for the sake of your children..
