Many phases or decisions require a leap of faith. Some do it with a prayer while others adopt a "what the hell!" attitude. As I am continuing with my soul-searching, what-am-I-supposed-to-learn journey, I'm learning that it takes a dose of courage and a leap of faith to confront the icky underbelly of choices gone awry. It also takes a leap of faith to move ahead and believe there are better choices and days ahead.
Here's a lesson I'm pondering:
I've noticed that a lot of what passes for conversation only involves one party. The other person isn't interested or has heard the information before.
I am guilty of both sides.
And, it occurs to me that most of the spirited discussions toward the end of my marriage -- the last three years or so -- required neither of us to be there. We'd said it all before. We should've kept a tape of it so we could rewind, hit "play" and find something else to do.
There's a lesson in there that I'm trying to learn.
Look at me -- I'm leaping and learning.
