It never ceases amazing me how God works in mysterious ways I couldn’t ever imagine. About the time a reader wrote, “ I need to connect with others who have been through similar situations“, I found myself going through a situation where that applied.
In my case, it’s a relocation. Although I’ve been told it’s temporary, that does little in the way of calming me down. It reminds me how much I rely on familiar surroundings and loved ones in making it though daily challenges.
I know something is missing. There’s a hole whose emptiness wants to be filled.
I long for familiar surroundings and support. Without it, I feel out of place in a strange world with alien ways of doing things.
Being relocated gave me a new glance into the challenge faced by a family member who went through a similar situation just a few months ago. It’s not just a relocation, it’s a disconnect.
Some days, I just want to make it through the next few hours. When my surroundings were suddenly decided by people I don’t even know, it surrounds me with uncertainty.
Although I know I’ll make it through, I still experience the emotional storm.
There are sensations of fear, being out of control, being tired, having to be careful what I say and times I don’t care what I say or who I say it to. Each of these sensations and experiences have their own temptations.
It was during that time, that I encountered the readers note ” I need to connect with others who have been throughout similar situations.” I said to myself, you are absolutely right.
There’s something about connecting with others who are going through what you are experiencing. They may not be saying anything different than what you’ve heard.
There’s a comfort in knowing others have made it through. There’s a comfort in knowing you’re not alone. You can connect with those in similar situations.
In her case, she wants a support group for those struggling with the swinger lifestyle. We now have that option.
I want to see marriages, including swinger marriages recover from affairs. If you are interested in being a part of such a group, let me know. We are at www.RestoredLifestyle.com
If you want to use an alias or avatar email, I understand. The site has that capability.
It’s a place for connecting with others going through similar situations. You’ll also find access to the videos and resources that you need as part of the membership.
Best Regards,
Jeff
