No doors will have closed, and the only thing that will have really changed is that this scary thing you've been dreading will no longer be in you future, it will be part of your past and powerless to hurt you.<br /><br />I dreaded it awfully, spent it alone in a hotel far from home... but this has actually been my best decade ever-- I'm sure yours will be too.oruborishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15515168487968734118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6203136957387562981.post-18380093589578400302011-05-16T08:40:46.519-06:002011-05-16T08:40:46.519-06:00Terry, great read.

Much of it has to do with our attitudes. You are young and life still has much to offer you. Be kind to yourself and walk softly. Find the peace within yourself and nurture it. Here is a quote that sustains me in hard times.<br /><br />"When I recognize the pain I feel because of loss, I am respectful of its presence and kind to myself. And in the truth of what has ended, I see displays of what might be beginning."
