Hello My Friends, I so need any prayers just now at this time in my life....with all it's contradicting aspects. Some very wonderful indeed, but one huge change....I have seperated from my partner of six years..no going back with this one this time. I have no words for this ache just now...it is just too sore. All prayers appreciated if you can spare some.

With thanks

Pauline.

Oh, Pauline. I am so sorry - you certainly have my prayers. I know this is a rough time for you. Cry when you must, and keep going. You will get through this - you are strong! I will keep you in my thoughts and am sending positive thoughts your way - and lots of hugs.

Pauline, I'm so sorry to hear about your break-up. Hopefully your adventure to tackle a new curriculum will give you enough distraction from the hurt you are going through.
Grab life by its horns, Pauline! I know you got it in you! Here's sending all my positive vibes to you.

Pauline, I too am praying with/for you during this very painful time. Find comfort, especially during those painfully lonely times, in our care and the knowledge that you're forging an exciting new path for yourself. God has given and will continue to give you everything you need to live this new abundant life - know too how much He loves you and draws you into His caring arms to console you. You're not alone.

As I read your post the phrase, "As one door closes, another one opens" kept running through my mind. Although the door closing is hurting you now, keep the faith..Trust. There is always a reason. I was thinking just last night about a few years ago when I THOUGHT a particular situation needed to have a certain outcome. It was so heartbreaking to me at the time that things played out the way they did.

Guess what? I thank my lucky stars NOW. God, the Universe, whatever you call THE SOURCE, knew better than me. He lead me gently toward another door that was opening for me.

Trust Pauline, and know you DO NOT have to go it alone. We are here and we are listening. We have big shoulders!

Heartbreaks do heal - give yourself the time. Sometimes the more it hurts, the closer you are to getting past the pain.
It might feel like total grief, as if someone died. Keep coming here and talk, talk, talk.

I am sorry for your loss because that's exactly what it is. My prayer is that you continue on your path with your new degree and don't isolate yourself. Get out fo the house. It's a good distraction. Fresh air is good for you and so are other people.

Please keep us posted and know you can come here for support and encouragement.

Hi, Popea; I am so sorry to hear about the breakdown in your relationship. After 30 years, I went through the same over two years ago and all I can say is that, although there will be many "firsts" without the other, the ache will ease in time. Try to keep busy. You are not going to deal with this alone. Remember, we are all here.

Pauline,

I know good things will come to you when you are ready. It takes time to heal, be kind to yourself in the meantime.
