Upside Down...

Well, what can I say,... My life is going through a lot of changes right now, and I've had to make some difficult decisions. Scott & I have been married for just shy of 15 years, but we are currently separated. We're selling our house, and I'm going to be moving into an apartment with our three daughters. It's time for me to start yet another chapter in my life..... A life without abuse. Unfortunately, there has been an unresolved rage problem throughout most of our marriage, and it just seems that the more stress enters our lives, the harder it gets for him to control it, and so I've had to make a most difficult decison in leaving. What else can you do when the one who's supposed to love you the most is the one who hurts you the most? It leaves you asking yourself the question: "Friend? Or Foe?" There's no way for me to know what the road ahead holds for us, whether things will work out for our relationship in the end or not, but it's time for me to break the cycle I'm in, and experience a life without fear. This has not been an easy decision to make, and it only makes it harder when I have so many people who do not support me in this,.. who are quick to form opinions without knowing the depths of the history behind this decision, but I'm thankful for the few who are here for me. I know most people mean well, and just want us to find a way to work things out, but right now I need some time to put myself back together, and you just can't do that when everytime you start to pick the pieces up off the floor, they're kicked right back out of your hands, you know? More to come...
