STRUGGLE... that is what my marriage was; a daily struggle.
I wanted to be alive; to live each day with joy, meaning and activity. He wanted to stay in a dream world, a world that was not real, a subconscious state, not reality. The world I wanted consisted of adventure and fun and living each day to its fullest. His day consisted of creating computers and sitting and dreaming.
He even said to me when we were at the end. He said, 'My perception is my reality'. No, your perception is where you choose to stay and delude yourself, but it doesn't change reality. I choose to live in reality and love life.
We struggled against each other each day for 20 years; me, to live a full, rich life; him, to live in a dream state.

Not Good for Females
I have repeatedly said that one of the main reasons I left the morg is because it is not a good place for women.
I have given my personal story of how I have been harmed by misogynistic leadership. I have heard so many women who have shared similar storied to mine. The pat answer I get back is that *the church is perfect, the leadership is not*. This is so completely lame, it doesn't deem a response. However, since I hear it so often, I will respond.
If the church were indeed receiving guidance from god, then it would not be making poor choices, repeatedly, that harm a large group of people over a long period of time.
If the church were indeed receiving guidance from god, then its leadership would be making choices that were god-like, not human-like.
If the church were indeed receiving guidance from god, then its choices would reflect equality, love and acceptance, not judgement, condemnation and subjugation.
People would not be leaving in droves due to pain and disillusion.
