[quote=Anonymous]Tons of women go through this and they survive. Look at the positives - you are only 48, you're happily married and have a great life ahead of you. This is your time to do what you want to do. I had never done anything creative and decided to take up silver smithing and jewelry making. I've been taking classes for a few years, have my own in-house studio and work as much or as little as I want. I sell my jewelry in a bunch of stores, do trunk shows, selling parties at my home etc. It's enabled me to make a ton of new friends and I love doing it. I also took up golf which I really enjoy for the social aspect. Now my children are married and having babies so being a grandmother has become an important part of my life. So, like you I saw a big vacuum in front of me and I simply decided to fill it in with things I wanted to do - not someone else. Finally, I'm also happily married and being able to spend more time with my husband has been great. [/quote]
