I am a woman who wanted to be a good Mormon mother ever since I met my first college roommate at Brigham Young University in 1971. I was thoroughly (and gladly) indoctrinated by the book Motherhood, A Partnership With God and a delightful little pamphlet by Emma Rae Riggs McKay (wife of President David O. McKay and one of my heroines) on motherhood. Being a mother and grandmother has brought me great joy and provided the opportunities to be stretched, tried, tested in ways which will (I trust), eventually, solidify attributes of patience, sacrifice and charity ; I wouldn't trade these roles for anything.
Musing is defined as calm, thoughtful consideration, reflection, meditation. I am most grateful for the passage of time and the Spirit of the Lord which have enabled me to 'muse'.
This blog will explore the journey I have had in dealing with a spouse who I discovered in 2003 was involved in pornography. My goal is to provide a forum for healing by sharing some of the ideas, principles and concepts that have been helpful to me. First and foremost, I am not a professional anything; I'm just a woman who has spent a married lifetime trying to understand and deal with an addictive personality. Your comments and experiences are solicited as well. I'm hoping that if even one other person can receive encouragement and enlightenment from this forum, it will be worthwhile. Please feel free to comment anonymously and share your insights.
