I write this with a heavy heart.

With an interview just a few weeks away. First- I am very happy I have met all of you. Its been a hard road and a long one and yet we all made it. Our motives are many! but the biggest one is love.

This journey has taught me love.

My husband has decided that he cant leave his kids. He doesnt feel we will be able to make it financially and is having some regrets now. Call it cold feet? I do not know. All I do know is that I dont think we will remain married because how can we living so very far apart? I wont make him choose between me and his kids. I cant convince him otherwise.

I love all of you! And wish you all the best. I dont honestly know what I am going to do now. I guess find a way to pick myself up. I can consider this an accomplishment. A sad one.

God bless you all.

Alicia my dear !!

It's so hard to read that... I just hope you are fine, be strong girl !

You are amazing person with a very big heart !!

We are with you !!

God bless you all.

All things happen for a reason. God does not throw stones that we can not catch. When He puts tears in your eyes, its because He wants to put a rainbow in your heart.
