I have known Rocky since about 1998. When you two got married, I was very excited for him. Then he dropped off Facebook (again) and I started to wonder what happened. I found your blog today, and read this post. I'm not quite sure what I want to say, or how to say it. My soul reaches out to you. I hope you feel the comfort of someone far away who somewhat understands what you have gone through. Not because I've gone through it personally, but because I have seen Rocky do this pattern over and over again, and I agree that undiagnosed/untreated mental illness is at the heart of it. He completely shuts down, and then he leaves. I've read some of your other posts, and I'm touched by how in tune you are with your spiritual journey. I'm especially touched by what you have to say about Rocky, about the purpose of this marriage in your eternal path, and your ability to accept and assimilate this experience, overcoming fear, bitterness, and I'm sure anger. I also love Rocky (as a friend, we never dated), and have been heartbroken and disappointed with some of the choices he has made. I pray for him as well. <br /><br />In addition, your blog is a source of inspiration to me right now. We're having our own trial right now and I'm having the hardest time handing my will over to the Lord. I'm glad I found your blog! <br /><br />Sincerely,<br />AliciaAliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02963624274076971688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047089879552016367.post-86811611310247198512013-07-06T13:22:42.750-07:002013-07-06T13:22:42.750-07:00Thank you Ginger.

This trial has been short, but it was not my first rodeo. It actually illuminated what was going on all those years (11) with my ex -5 together and 6+years of drama afterward. The major difference is that this marriage was right and I loved this one and we had and could still have a great future. But I praise God for knowing all and I trust that he has something awesome planned. Maybe you and I will get to chat in real life soon. <br />Nam Joti Kaur https://www.blogger.com/profile/06278780453485466137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047089879552016367.post-60244704013074791632013-07-06T13:17:41.586-07:002013-07-06T13:17:41.586-07:00Thank you Andy.

I understand the joy and light of a temple marriage, knowing that it was "right", the undiagnosed mental illness of my husband, the pain, the happiness lost, the struggle to find help, self doubt, family members who enable, confusion, sorrow, and finally a divorce. What you have experienced in months I experienced in years. 13 years of marriage plus 6 more years of being single, homeschool mom. Learning to trust in the Lord. Thank you for sharing your experience, there is not much comfort I can give, except that I am praying for you and would like be your friend. Sending a hug from Wyoming.

I have been through this heartbreak. The light and joy of a temple marriage, knowing it was right, the undiagnosed mental illness, enabling, abuse, Blaming myself and finally a divorce. Instead of months though my journey has taken years. 20 years of sorrow, joy, children, prosperity, poverty, lonely times, and growth. 6 Of those years as a single mom. Learning to trust in the Lord, and fulfill my life's mission. <br />Even though I am far away in Wyoming. I want to let you know I care, I understand some of what you are going through. I wish you were closer so I could visit with you face to face. Sending a hug your way!Ginger Gerstnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07318759862284089441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047089879552016367.post-21384190983592895512013-07-05T08:57:57.638-07:002013-07-05T08:57:57.638-07:00Oh Felice, my heart grieves with you. You've c...Oh Felice, my heart grieves with you. You've carried this burden so gracefully. I admire your ability to "drink the bitter cup without becoming bitter." To steal another metaphor from Nephi, every now and again I come upon a "Land Bountiful" in my life. Everything about it feels right and I know it is an intended part of my journey. So, when God asks me to figuratively build a boat, pack up, leave what I thought was my promised land, and cross the ocean, it sure is hard! I'm praying that God's "beauty for ashes" brings about the sweetest future for you and your dear Phoebe.

I don't ever want to minimize pain or difficulty, but my goodness, it is never wasted. Consider the Joseph of Nauvoo (following Missouri and Liberty Jail): In Illinois he ascended to new heights of understanding,and unveiled the face of God. <br />Blessings of joy and peace to you and your daughter. Thank you for your courage in sharing your gifts so freely.

I've always found it interesting in Lehi's vision that after he has partaken of the fruit & felt joy & is desirous for his family to do the same, he sees them, calls them with a "loud voice" (so he is very clear about what he wants) but he never leaves the tree to go get them. That is a lesson for all of us: no matter what people around us are doing, including those very close to us, we never leave the tree. It seems like you know this & continue to partake of the love of God, so all will be well with you. Only when we increase our distance from our Heavenly Father & Savior are we at risk, but when we stay close to Them, miraculously, all suffering is consecrated to our gain. I fasted and prayed for you back when you posted that request, and I will keep you & your daughter in my prayers. Wishing you all the best and thank you for your blog.
