A couple of miscarriages in 19 years of marriage seemed proof it wasn't meant to be. Then it happened... and now it's happening again and there's a part of me that is in awe at how much life can change from what you thought it was going to be.Kristina Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07206629885091637673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-67747309353547888462011-05-09T10:20:27.105-04:002011-05-09T10:20:27.105-04:00How very beautiful and (though I feel this word se...How very beautiful and (though I feel this word seems to make light of the poignancy I experience from your post) clever, Lisabet. By that I refer to the post's content and, as Kathleen alluded to, your approach to the week's topic.

It's easy to write about something - you experience it vividly, but then you can just let the pain evaporate. <br /><br />I used to bug my lovers that they "couldn't commit". But sometimes I think I'm the one who deserves that criticism.Lisabet Saraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05162514190572269660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-45818171368717811792011-05-08T21:54:25.750-04:002011-05-08T21:54:25.750-04:00Wow, that was beautiful.

Are there marriages like that?<br /><br />I think we only dream such things. I've never seen them. Surely such things don;t exist.<br /><br />GarceGarceushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11160407485298015371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-69797259928993258532011-05-08T13:14:48.541-04:002011-05-08T13:14:48.541-04:00Lisabet - Kudos for coming up with a take on this,...Lisabet - Kudos for coming up with a take on this, and such an interesting one too.Kathleen Bradeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06347913255760493335noreply@blogger.com
