The farm is sold jason: At 5:55 pm, EST my real estate agent called to say that this farm has been sold. Deal closes June 30th. This is the last crop I will ever plant here, and when I harvest it, it won't be my land any more. All thanks to a greedy soon to be ex wife.
The mix of emotions I am feeling right now are indescribable.
I was having a good day. Not so much so anymore.
Re:The farm is sold Safetykc: Hang in there Jason.
It may seem overwhelming now, but as one door closes another opens.
Focus on the future...It is bright.
Peace,
Safety
Re:The farm is sold incoherentlonghorn: Jason,
To the rest of your life away from the woman who made this happen. ;)
Our family farm is devoid of life and a reminder of what was, yours will still return a harvest. You will always have the good memories and your future.
Hang in there,
LL
Re:The farm is sold Safetykc: I hear you man. All I have is words and support. It is all we all have to offer.
It isn't called the rollercoaster for nothing. I know it doesn't count for much, but take it from someone who has seen the light post divorce.
Sometimes there is a reason why these things happen. We think the person we are with is our light, our hope, our dream, but then this happens and we realize they weren't.
But love, joy, and happiness are out there if we choose to keep ourselves open to it.
Years from now we will all look back at the pit of our despair and not even remember why we were so down.
You can and will rebuild you're life, hopes, dreams and yes, even farms.
I know how much you loved the farm. Be human...you are allowed to grieve and be down...feel the loss this day brings you, but at the core, never lose sight of the gifts you still have in you're life, and in you're future.
Be strong,
Safety
Re:The farm is sold Spectrum: Jason,
WRT to your post on the other thread, I'd agree...
Skip the fish bat, stick with the boots! And make sure you tramp around the cow fields a bit first, so you can leave a nice footprint in the process. ;)
