She had never felt more connected to him than in that moment. He had pledged his love to her so wholeheartedly, she was finally convinced he loved her as much as she loved him.
Her personal strength seemed to know no limits. Life had dealt her one tragedy after another, and yet, she managed to rise above it all and live life with a positive outlook. When asked how she does it, which happens frequently as others marvel at it, she gives a one word answer. "Faith."
Success had never tasted sweeter. The countless hours, days, and even weeks spent away from her loved ones, had all come down to this. It was harder than she'd ever imagined, but now that it was over, she could say it was worth the sacrifices.
His ego had grown so big, he could no longer see himself for who he really was, just the son of a poor farmer from middle America. He buried his true upbringing so deep in the back of his mind, he had all but forgotten it himself.
"I trusted you!" she shouted at him. The pain he'd inflicted was reflected in her expression. Her face was beet red and her features twisted into a grimace. This latest betrayal was just one more in a long list of transgressions...

I adore my family. Being a mother has been my most amazing journey in so many ways. However, there are times when I long for the ease of my pre-mommy life. It was once such a simple thing to run errands and keep up with the mundane duties of life-- a quick stop at the store, pick up the dry cleaning, mail a package at the post office. No problem! There were no car seats to struggle with, no snacks to be considered or potty emergencies to be handled. I could accomplish a number of tasks in such a short amount of time.
I began my approach. I could see nothing else as I narrowed my vision and focused on one person only. I was distracted by nothing and by no one else. I walked briskly up to the place where he stood by the rich, dark and curving walnut frame of the bar and fixed my eyes directly upon his. "Hello," I said. "My name is Sadie. I already know yours."
She felt enraged when she learned of the outdated policy. "No Women Allowed"...in this day and age it seemed preposterous. Well, they could take their men's club and shove it!
