Is it vespers?

Yesterday I laughed a big belly laugh for the first time since my wife filed for divorce. And today was a relatively good day. I received much needed hugs and had some cathartic chats as well as one where I came away feeling I had learned a lot about my wife and our relationship.

I feel better at times when I feel that I am making progress, when I am moving forwards instead of sinking in quicksand and today I seemed to have taken a micro baby step forward.

To be sure, I have a long row to hoe but I feel like I've learned something, I've moved towards something better, even if only by a fraction.
