I'm going to get a tattoo. I will wear it, and endure it, as a motto for the life i've been granted. It shall be placed upon my back.

I can't help but feel angered and amazed by the selfishness of the decision you are making.

I know we haven't stayed in touch often, but for what it's worth, I support you and your decision. My sibling both came from previous marriages, and I can tell you in out situation, it was better for them to have a happy patent that was around not as often, as it was to have someone around all the time that wasn't really "there". That old attage of "how can you love others if you can't love yourself"...it doesn't just apply to man/woman relationships, but also child/parents.
To those who boo you out loud or in private....fuck them, they can never know what you're going through, or the choices your'e forced to make. If they can't support you, or at least attempt to support you, if by nothing else, by staying silent, then they really aren't there for you to begin with.
