Indiscretions

I've hit a wall this morning. Too much work and dealing with this very strange cold/laryngitis. I can't get into my groove yet. So much phlegm and mucus...disgusting.

FINALLY got some money in this week so was able to pay the bills and put some cash in me pocket. Cash flow issues keep me up at night and I'm not certain how to deal with getting people to pay me in a reasonable amount of time.

I've become increasingly disturbed by the amount of times I'm hearing the word "divorce" during the week from those close to me. It's incredibly sad to see couples grow and thrive and then hit this bump that leads them in completely different directions. I always hope that there is some way to errr, find the light? How can couples connect to that seeded core that made them grow and tick.

What's more amazing to me is how humans have created more problems for themselves. A big obvious for couple destruction - an affair - had parameters. Meetings at discreet locations. Uninhibited sex wrapped up with shreds of guilt. Sneaking phone calls. Stolen kisses. At least sex-filled affairs had some cruel honesty. There's some conviction in that.

Today, people have all these ways to "correspond" outside of their marriage. The digital age has led to indiscretions via chat rooms, email, social networking sites and - aghast - text message. The lines between right and wrong are so blurred, so iffy and uncomfortable. How does one react? How does one constitute? How does one recover and learn to forgive?
