yes, sometimes we fear the worst and at the end everything works out just fine.
Sometimes we think that a couple is not going to be happy ,and they turn out to
be a great example to other families. I agree with you totally that sometimes is
great to be wrong. ha ha!

I made a big mistake when I got married back in 1983 to my high school sweetheart. We were too young and inexperienced and definitely not ready for marriage but we were in love and did it anyway. Needless to say we became very unhappy, very soon and ended up separating four years later and divorcing after that. I was so devastated because not only it was a very painful experience I felt like a failure for making such a big life mistake. Well, to cut a long story short, if I had not realised that I had made a mistake I would have stuck it out in an inadequate marriage. By admitting to myself I was wrong I ended up leaving and starting over which concluded in my present marriage which is so much happier than the first one so I am glad I admitted I was wrong, got out and got what I have now!

I have a health problem which made me unable to finish college. When I was still studying, my body can't function well and my friends see how bad I was suffering. It was clear I can go no further and I moved out of college. The root of my problem can only be extinguished by a cultural tweak but its not going to happen anytime soon. So I failed to earn a degree but my life became more interesting compared to that if I remained studying. The internet became my last hope and at the comfort of our house I get to do things my energy permit me to do. If not for the viruses, I must be ecstatic by now but as it corrupted my files, I was humbled. Those were personal files yet its not even the tip of the iceberg that's lost with me.

I worded a test wrong. I was trying to make a negative true/false question. One of the people answering the test went on and on. It was sooo funny. I don't remember the test, but I do remember that no matter what way he tried to think about it, it was still wrong, wrong as true and wrong as false. The guy went on and on it was like a comedy skit and I laughed so hard it was unbelievable. I wish I could remember it better.

bala hi again Yes its always good to be wrong when you are afraid
for your adult child.My 51 year old son is still out of work and I was worried sick that he was in all sorts of troubles and he just emailed me and told me not to worry;he is going to get general relief and also food stamps plus a friend of his has told him he wants to get together with my son and it sounds like a job offer so feel much h appier now,. Glad I was wrong. My son like his deceased dad always tries to not worry me by going silent which worries the hell out of me instead.When my hubby would get silent I knew something was wrong but had to worm it out of him and usually it was not nearly as awful as what I imagined to be wrong.Also my son said he will come see me around next wednesday so again feel much better.![](/Content/images/emotes/thumbup.gif)
