and tall when I wanted to falter in my path....
"And the day came when the risk to remain closed in a bud became more painful than the risk it took to blossom.~~Anais Nin"
The first anniversary of my divorce was a little over a week ago. I've been in an introspective mood this week and found it in my journal. And it is frighteningly true.
I can honestly say that the only problems I have these days are financial ones. My kids are doing great and weary of all the 'unnecessary' concern for them (omg, mother, it's only a divorce, it would have been worse if you two had stayed together!!!!). My family is slowly but surely coming around to accept my 'sin' of the divorce. I've got a wonderful man in my life who loves me and knows how to show it. I just bought my dream house....a little 3BR ranch within a few miles of the lake north of my city!! I'm told I'm a much nicer, easier-going person now. If I were rich and out of debt, I'd have it all!!!!
It was hard and painful and sad and empty and all that to get to this point, without a doubt, but it sure was worth it!!!!!!
