This blog is about Divorce. Full disclosure, I am far from a divorce expert. Though I haven’t gone through one myself, some of my dearest friends and exes have, which has afforded me an intimate understanding of what people go through.
This goes without saying: divorce is emotionally painful for everyone involved. The process requires going through the loss of what was – just like grieving anything in which you truly are invested.. It requires feeling tough emotions like sadness, anger, regret and shame, to name just a few. It’s important to process your thoughts and feelings, take responsibility for your part in it, mourn the loss of the marriage, and over time, eventually let go.
If I had married in my 20’s or 30’s, there’s a good chance I would have been divorced by now. The reason is that just like you, I am a very different person now than I was then.
I’d like you to consider this:
What if you could look at your divorce as a death or a shedding of a part of YOU who once was, and truly embrace the years you had with your ex and all you created together? What if you could acknowledge that the person you married, no matter how much you love them, doesn’t serve you NOW in who you’ve become?
Of course it is easier said than done, but if you can look at it this way, even for a moment, perhaps you could better cherish, respect, and remember the joys you’ve known with them.
