Many years ago I was in a really dark place, an abusive and controlling marriage, very little time to myself and every move that I made I felt as if I was being spied upon and monitored. Many times I wondered how and when it would end and yet each and every day I chose to live, I kept on trying to do the best that I could.

After nearly 12 years of marriage in August 2014, I have a firm belief that God once again intervened in my life, I was given a couple of thousand pounds, not a lot but enough for a train ticket and time to find somewhere to live, I felt that I had to move far enough away from my family and few friends to feel totally safe and I moved to Pembrokeshire on the West Coast of Wales, met someone who I was with for just over 5 years, sadly it didn’t work out but I never give up on the idea of finding love 😀 ❤️. It’s hard sometimes when you don’t really love yourself very much and although I say that I do outwardly I don’t always feel it inside

Anyway after some hard times, loss and separation and having 💋 a few female 🐸 I found my princess 👸, a year later and we are still going strong and the past are just memories now. Whilst writing this post I am sat on a bench enjoying the sound of birds singing all around me.

Sometimes people come into our lives for a season.
And, for each of these people we learn something.

I totally agree with you, it is quite interesting that the 2 things that I learnt in particular from that marriage is that I had resilience and that if it quacks like a duck then it must be a duck, for some reason I was blinded and didn’t listen to anyone who warned me, there were definitely at least 3 in our marriage. I am also now able to evaluate just what it is that I want out of a relationship, I am fortunate because my girlfriend and I have very similar views and ideals and we certainly don’t have any drama in our relationship.
