Everybody talks about the quiet before the storm....
Nobody talks about the quiet after the storm

The quiet before the storm, the waiting, the anticipating,
the gut wrenching knot that seems to be in the pit of your stomach,
when your heart seems to drop and stay there.

The quiet after the storm.
The devastation that's been left behind.
The storm changes us forever....
there is no going back..
The quiet after the storm is very lonely

We just gave what we can, and discard what's of no more use.
Then we somehow pick ourselves back up, and start over......

Thats a sad time for sure, to see all you had gone or destroyed. It's like any thing else devastating, leaving you lost, and confused.wine

It could have been worse, I could have lost custody of my kids so in the end all is good. The kids are ok with it and they still get to see her. The kids took it better than i thought. Thanks for the wishes of good luck.
