Future conversation?

I can imagine my husband coming to me concerned - wondering where the woman he married went. He'd be feeling like he married a pretty mare and now he's wrangling a young, frisky fillie!I think I would say something like:

"I am still the same woman. For nearly 20 years you knew the Ruth that was hid in under the baggage of shame, guilt, fear and failure. Now that is all gone and I am free. Free to love, free to laugh, free to live life to the fullest - the way God intended me to!"

(I slept in this morning and missed my work out with Leona - but just logged 40 minutes on treadmill - going 2.58km and burning 484 calories)
