If you think about the “biology” of how you got here, then you’re able to at least appreciate the miracle of birth and life. As divorces occur and relationships end, the hurt and pain can be so overwhelming that we often forget we’re dealing with other human beings. During the beginning of my divorce process, it was about emotional survival and it took all my power to find five blessings in my life. First on my list was always my healthy son. Second on the list was my physical health. Third on the list was the support of my family and friends. As the days went by, I was able to add to that list.
Keeping my focus on the blessings in my life allowed me to find compassion through our separation. It allowed me to be a support system for my son and be present in his life. With blessings comes hope. Hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Hope that everyone will get through this with peace in their heart. Hope that love will come again.
Your existence in this world is important. You’re here for a reason. YOU are a blessing!
You can love someone, but you can’t make them love you back. You…
