Dear Sparks,
We understand the urge. We also understand that the decision you are contemplating may be overwhelming you. Some of us had children, some were one-parent families, most of us in foreign countries, and all of us facing the cold shoulder in the name of love.
We know, we were at the beginning of that road. Perhaps it was easy for some, not for me. I found work fairly quickly but hardly had enough money at the end of the week. We lived mostly from charity until I was able to find better work.
With time, I went to school and through a lot of long nights studying after working all day the situation started improving. My wife also worked hard, and time went by. Before I realized my children grew up and I now have a solid family with children who understand the importance of freedom to think and make decisions.
It is not going to be easy but it is going to be liberating. The liberty in The Family was never such because only God's truth can give us real freedom.
I suggest you take your time to think about saving funds, planning your next move, and then leave. Do not haste. Keep communicating with us, and work a plan out. Keep in mind that your decision may draw a lot of criticism from those you love. The emotional pain may be something you better start dealing with earlier.
Keep us informed. We can help.
Peace.
