Journal Entry, September 2000

It was a time we'd look back on as the domino effect. 

More negativity, more adversity, and more obstacles than one

would ever imagine going through. 

 

On this day, Mark and I sat in a state of shock 

after reading the sensationalized article we had dedicated weeks to.


Once again feeling betrayal, we were numb.
Then I read her letter, a letter from someone
who had proven her loyalty and friendship above and beyond
many people we had given almost everything we had ever owned to....

"Oh well.. know what?
For every step we make, we learn...
we become stronger...
We are very rich anyway,
We have our marriage and kids and a roof over us.
Thad's newest motto over the last few weeks was...

"Why should we make excuses for everyone about our each step we make?
It is our decision and business.
It is not anyone else's life.
We do not need to listen to others as to why we should make each move,
it is only to satisfy their own need to control."

So.. you should just focus on raising your three children
and be good wife to Mark
while I focus on raising our son, Ando,
and remembering our fondest memories of the eight months
we had before Benjamin passed away,
and just be a good wife to the man I love.
We will all be okay...
We will build something that someday everyone will look at and say

" Geez! They went thru a lot without anyone else's help and they succeeded despite it! "

Together we will succeed!!!!!!!"

Every Moment of your life is infinitely creative
and the universe is endlessly bountiful.
Just put forth a clear enough request,
and everything your heart desires must come to you.
