You remind me of a terrible wedding anniversary I experienced once myself, in a marriage that eventually ended. It was such an odd day, to be so sparkling on the outside, but so quiet and lifeless on the inside. You are in my thoughts, and I am very much hoping for better days ahead for you.The Goodwill Fangirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05845712888337339929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7926693259891960139.post-62689516882714681502012-09-27T08:39:57.866-07:002012-09-27T08:39:57.866-07:00You are beautiful inside and out and it is so gra...You are beautiful inside and out and it is so gracious of you to share this with all of us, I am just catching up, but I hope this helps you find resolution, strength or perhaps just the the kindness of strangers who think so highly of you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7926693259891960139.post-39998920012573372302012-09-25T21:17:09.312-07:002012-09-25T21:17:09.312-07:00oh sweet precious tameara Beloved child of God--ye...oh sweet precious tameara Beloved child of God--yes, invite self loathing, sit with her and get to the bottom of her, she does not belong--but she is serving some purpose. find out what she's there for, and be done with her, show her the door my friend. <br /><br />your beautiful introspective heart is so inspiring to see, our life is just this, a collection, week after week of getting back to who we God created us to be, because we are so far off from that. so by you inviting in self loathing and any other lie that doesn't line up with the character your spirit is so fighting to have,you can confront, ponder, and with the awareness of her presence, tell her she no longer serves a purpose. <br /><br />you are doing beautiful work, don't stop.ever.

I have been experiencing similar feelings and it is so true that it is in the "breaking open that the true examination can take place". No matter how painful, it's better to hold something up to the light to see its true nature rather than push it down and push it down until it crushes you. Your photos are beautiful, and I'm sending you a warm hug.Forest City Fashionistahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04428940427287921203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7926693259891960139.post-17547958758638749862012-09-25T08:05:15.514-07:002012-09-25T08:05:15.514-07:00Oh Tamera, how courageous you are to state what yo...Oh Tamera, how courageous you are to state what you know to be true.

I just found your blog and don't know ...Tamera,<br />I just found your blog and don't know you, but I know very well what it's like to push away things that I don't want to deal with or don't know how to deal with. And I know how heartbreaking it is when we see the truth of a relationship is far from what we want it to be. As difficult as that is, I think it is better to know the truth most of the time. In my case it has freed me most of the time from holding onto something that would never meet my needs. I hope that everything works out for your best soon.<br />Donna<br />www.prettysparklythings.blogspot.comBohemian Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09654195110070113239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7926693259891960139.post-3042868753188095942012-09-24T18:45:16.905-07:002012-09-24T18:45:16.905-07:00My dear Tamera,

Self loathing is what we women do so well isn't it? There is a wonderful book called "The Dark Side Of The Light Chasers" that I highly recommend. We do not know each other but I sense a kindred spirit. Please feel free to email me as I think we may have much in in common. I'll check that my email is accessible on my profile. <br />Be strong, you are a beautiful woman inside and out. <br />My best with love,<br />JenniferJenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04723360304687997220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7926693259891960139.post-3121647499177530712012-09-24T13:49:50.577-07:002012-09-24T13:49:50.577-07:00Okay, Tamera, you have done it to me again.

For you Miss Tamera have voiced so many of my feelings, so much of my own soul that I feel validated in your words. They say to me. "See Barb you are not alone!" If I can give you any words of encouragement it is this... "Tamera, you are not alone! There is a woman in Florida who has many of the same kinds of feeling that you going though. <br />Every time I long on to your blog it as if a drawn curtain has been lifted to reveal to me something I have shoved down below view. Here is to your courage, your eloquent words and to a year of growth that you have inspired me to take on!

Sorry you have had something so difficult to deal with. Despite that, I think it is marvelous that you had a 25th anniversary--those landmarks are becoming fewer and fewer in today's world (and I am hoping the "awful" was something external and not something between you and your husband). Hang on and keep hold of what is real and meaningful in your life. xoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7926693259891960139.post-40153624881333856392012-09-24T09:59:23.565-07:002012-09-24T09:59:23.565-07:00Giving you a big virtual hug!
