As a BS I'm posting here to say first of all, I'm thankful for the power of change and redemption. I loved my fWW when the adulteries were current events and I love her today, 25 years later as well.
But I love and am very thankful for the changes she has made and that Christ has made in her as well.
I will also say that on a more temporal note, I am thankful that I was too busy having a really good Thanksgiving Day this year to lurk on here and post on this here thread.
There have been many other years where that would NOT have been the case at all, unfortunately, but we've been reclaiming holidays as best we can, and it's working, thankfully!
I am also thankful for truth and honesty and mercy and a great many other things which make it possible to rebuild and do what needs doing in relationships and life, in spite of all the other dark and ugly things in the souls of every one of us that stand against such hopes and efforts.
And I'm thankful for empathy as well. Not just for waywards towards their betrayed spouses...but for the betrayeds towards their waywards (or former waywards, as the case may be) as well...
In short, I'm thankful to simply feel thankful on Thanksgiving this year...still working on that "Happy" business end of that expression however...
