During the times that hubby and I were too caught up with the presidential debates, I was secretly following the developments on John Edwards campaigns. You know why? I had a secret crush on him hee. So imagine my dismay when he admitted on cheating his wife, Elizabeth.
I have spoken about my stand on extra-marital affairs which is a big NO-NO to me. If and when hubby committed this mistakes, there will be no room for forgiveness on my part. But, I have had friends who had forgiven their husbands or boyfriends for cheating on them and somehow my understanding on this matter has become wider than before. Still, I am hoping and praying I would never be in this kind of situation as I do not know if I could handle this gracefully like what Elizabeth Edwards is undergoing now.
Read her stand on the issue from: Perez Hilton.com
Our family has been through a lot. Some caused by nature, some caused by human weakness, and some most recently caused by the desire for sensationalism and profit without any regard for the human consequences. None of these has been easy. But we have stood with one another through them all. Although John believes he should stand alone and take the consequences of his action now, when the door closes behind him, he has his family waiting for him. John made a terrible mistake in 2006. The fact that it is a mistake that many others have made before him did not make it any easier for me to hear when he told me what he had done. But he did tell me. And we began a long and painful process in 2006, a process oddly made somewhat easier with my diagnosis in March of 2007. This was our private matter, and I frankly wanted it to be private because as painful as it was I did not want to have to play it out on a public stage as well. Because of a recent string of hurtful and absurd lies in a tabloid publication, because of a picture falsely suggesting that John was spending time with a child it wrongly alleged he had fathered outside our marriage, our private matter could no longer be wholly private. The pain of the long journey since 2006 was about to be renewed. John has spoken in a long on-camera interview. Admitting one's mistakes is a hard thing for anyone to do. I am proud of the courage John showed by his honesty in the face of shame. The toll on our family of news helicopters over our house and reporters in our driveway is yet unknown. But now the truth is out, and the repair work that began in 2006 will continue. I ask that the public, who expressed concern about the harm John's conduct has done to us, think also about the real harm that the present voyeurism does and give me and my family the privacy we need at this time.
I never really liked her, but I must admit she has this unique kind of beauty and the "it" factor when carrying those designer clothes, shoes and bags not to mention THE accessories!!! Anyways, if not for Sex and The City, I wouldn't like her at all.
