2008 Day 245
dear blog,
it is over. the girl has left me.
it was her, not me. she couldn't work with my Catholicism against her fundamentalism. i didn't believe in the absoluteness of the bible the way she would.
sigh.
i thought things were going well. i knew religion was a sore spot, but i didn't think it was insurmountable. i thought it we wanted to, we could make it work. it wouldn't be easy, but it was doable.
the only thing i feel okay about is i know i tried. it wasn't me. i didn't fail. it just wasn't meant to be. there wasn't anything more i could do.
so now, i'm back at square one. sometimes, life gives you a ladder, sometimes it's a chute.
