Re: my expertise is "amerikans" not foreigners...so i correctly give opinions on such.
John McCain, personally I think, you know of what you speak.... When most of us are young we cannot see the forest for the trees and so therefore, get married for all the wrong reasons.... Hind sight is always 20/20 I love your post about the "cut your loses", you are so right, there is NO prize at the finish line for being a martyr.... (Just a bigger stupid stamp!!!!)
In life, we go through life, seeing what we WANT to see, hearing what we WANT to hear, and feeling what we WANT to feel...... sadly, OFTEN these wants are not based in reality. Personally, I think as young women we were too caught up in being "GOOD GIRLS" and not living freely, experiencing all life had to offer. SO we did settle....
I'm trying to impart a very different view of the world to my daughter.
I also think that what another poster said about your soul coming to earth choosing these lessons...... makes some sense...... some of us obviously have been very immature souls looking for a crash course in earthly studies.... AGAIN like you said admit your mistakes and "cut your loses".
