I remember once, in all the grief and turmoil from my own marriage and the separation. I remember looking up at the sky at the stars vast and as far as the eye could see, and marveling about it. Suddenly in the middle of that came this huge rush of relief that I never had to go back, that it was done, and it was followed by such a rush of joy that it made me ashamed.Debbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531125606268748793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-80495263353315289422010-06-08T10:14:16.145-05:002010-06-08T10:14:16.145-05:00Been there, sometimes still feel that!Been there, sometimes still feel that!Helenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13447013188405986054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-66422041142188404002010-06-08T00:12:59.243-05:002010-06-08T00:12:59.243-05:00I get this and you wrote it all so beautifully.

NOTE: NOT that I was anxious to find a male blogger.<br />Just to salve my conscience, maybe?<br /><br />2. I MUST look up this "Magpie" thing. Nearly two years blogging--I must be in hiding! (No--just slow to catch on--that's the truth.)<br /><br />3. Your "Magpie" is a too-often-played scenario...maybe however, better than the old method of staying married "Come hell or high water"!<br /><br />4. Well written, short and hard to beat (I left out "sweet"!) I know I've seen Magpies before, but this is the first which really opened up mine eyes....<br />THANK you!steveronihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17498524940140288735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-84075313721556276942010-06-07T08:32:48.720-05:002010-06-07T08:32:48.720-05:00oh but t breaks my heart that harmony once found w...oh but t breaks my heart that harmony once found was lost...nice yet painful magpie...Brian Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722940075884718007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-63553603254951379322010-06-07T07:45:15.411-05:002010-06-07T07:45:15.411-05:00Stevie, I love how you weave your life into your w...Stevie, I love how you weave your life into your writing.
