Divorce & Starting Over Single

End of the Year = End of Your Marriage?

Major holidays sometimes prove just how broken your marriage is, and you know ... it's time to stop pretending and admit that your marriage has been over for so very long.  * Your only New Year's resolution is to file for divorce.

The decision itself can be a relief, especially if you've been struggling to make the marriage work. But you can't. It really does take two. 

The reasons for divorce are many. Emotional and personality incompatibility is a destroyer. The two partners may have completely different needs for feeling loved and secure -- needs that the spouse is unable or unwilling to give. 

Your job in making the decision to leave or stay is whether you've blossomed or withered in your marriage. Your natural inborn gift is a peaceful, loving life.

Imagine the absence of emotional, psychological, and/or physical abuse. Picture being surrounded by people who respect you, believe in you, and admire you. How does that sound? Impossible? No. That's the real world, beyond your marriage.

   * When you leave the pain, you truly walk into the sunshine. *

In this series of blog posts, Divorce & Starting Over Single, you'll find practical guidance, steps to take through that process, and upbeat ideas for fresh start as a single. You'll also find useful information in the past posts.

And, as always, I welcome your comments!

Peace,
