When another man in your life goes to jail.

My ex-husband, my mid-son ,then my oldest son and now my present boyfriend has dealt that same hand, it's extremely painful everyday. I say to myself, "Lord how come You have burdened my heart like this?" My body has became numb, but I stay strong to support them, with the grace of God.

He says, "This is not your fault, for everyone has a choice", but I sometimes do blame myself cause I often have found myself supporting the wrong doing of each one of my loved ones, if I knew then what I know now, my love would have been used in a different way.

Now one out of the four of the men in my life has gone to jail. My middle son was given a second chance, I thank God everyday. He has been out for one year when he was facing ten yrs. He is on the right track. It's hard for him, but I stay on his back, stay in his face about the drugs, the people he called his friends and family because when he went to prison he had no family and friends, but his immediate family so I have learned and he has to now.

He is doing his best to stay on track. He now knows that his mom knows best and I feel he will find success. People learn to support the right things. In your loved ones lives, this is the better outcome no matter what.PEACE
