Hi Laura! You are right. I have to thank my Counselor for helping me emotionally divorce myself from my husband. It was a very tough process that begun with the removal of my wedding ring. It took years before I allowed myself to evolve again. I like the freedom that my separation has given me. I take this as a gift and continue to cherish the peace of mind and freedom from heartache everyday.

I can so relate to what you say about needing to both honor the past marriage while also recognizing its death. I have often said that I much prefer being alone than lonely in my marriage. .-= Laura´s last blog ..A New School Year =-.

Dred, after everything I have been through I now know that being true to oneself and others is the best thing that I can do to me, for me, for others and for my kids. Sometimes, other people have trouble understanding me and my get in your face attitude, but they just never took the time to get to know me, and where I came from and what I have been through. Through it all, I know that what is important is what I think of me and what I believe to be true is true. Hayy, thanks for everything as well, my friend…
