Off-Topic Happy Easter
OP: April 05, 2012, 03:23:47 PM
Well exactly as the title says Happy Easter.


For the newbies who’s world has fallen apart and everything hurts and brings back memories as hard as it to believe you will get to a point where you can start creating new happy memories.
It is not a betrayal to do so.  You may feel a pang when you do new things but it won’t hurt as much.


We all start off wanting our spouses back and we all start off trying to fix it.  The best Easter gift you can give you, your family and even your spouse is fixing yourself so you are strong, capable and happy, whether they are in your lives or not.


Happy Easter all.

Happy Easter.  I will be spending it with my family...but it's the first time apart from my H since I met him...23 years....oh well.  If Jesus can be resurrected from the grave my marriage can be resurrected someday also.

Happy Easter to everyone.

Hope Floats is so right. I am almost 6 months into this and I feel I am doing very well. My life is all about me and very little about my vanisher and his crisis. I have times that last seconds, minutes, hours or days when I am so uttlerly and overwhelmingly consumed by grief but they are less than they were before. I know that his crisis is outwith my control so I have no guilt in living my life as I am and enjoying pretty much every day.

Who knows what the future holds? I know one thing - I'm going to be just fine and dandy whatever happens to my H.

Much love to all, TE x

Happy Easter to all on the forum including family and MLCers.

We should all count our blessings and there are many to be grateful for including Jesus dying on the cross to forgive all our sins. May the blessing of Easter touch all of us.

H will come bearing eggs on Good Friday but disappear to OW and her family on Easter Sunday. This has now become a tradition. Since BD H hasn't spent Easter or Christmas at home. That's fine and now we don't focus on it but enjoy the day.

Great thread!  As a newbie (almost 7 months), it's nice to hear how others are progressing and spending the holidays. Maybe we can even share ideas on new traditions to create.

My H will be coming over from 9:00am - 2:30pm on Easter. We will have brunch with the D's and of course their Easter egg hunt. I'm going to try and think of something special to do with my girls after H leaves, something to create a new tradition for just the D's and I, even if it's just baking a special treat or something :)

And let us not forget the reason for the season!  How very blessed and loved we are by our awesome God. Glory be to Him!

Happy Easter everyone!!!!  :)

Happy Easter!

As in the Gaithers' song:

"'It is finished', the battle is over and Jesus is Lord!"

As we remember Jesus' death, taking our sins on that cross, let's be thankful that God triumphs over death, so He can resurrect that which is dead, namely, our marriages!
Remembering also that it will be like 'new wine poured into new wineskins' (Matt 9:16-17).
May God work on us too, making way for the new.

Praying that our spouses maybe touched by the Easter story.

Happy Easter to each of you and your families.  May the enemy that is surrounding our spouse be struck down with the resurrection of our savior.  That which has died is resurrected and made anew.  May God smile upon you and give you his favor.  May he work in the heart of our spouses and turn it to a heart of flesh and bring our prodigals home.

Peace, MOC
