Keeping the peace during and after the divorce!
Divorce can bring out the worse out of you, but only if you let it. The truth is if you can let go the guilt, or hurt, or love feelings for the other person, you can move on with your life. Who wants drama? I frankly don’t have the time, I have two kids to think about, so I look at them every morning, and pray. After I pray, I redirect my energy and thoughts to get things done. “The show must go on,” it is true in the real world, the sun will come up again tomorrow. No matter what has been said about me, or how my new ex-husband treats me, I have forgiveness in my heart, and a new future to look forward to. Being a single parent during the marriage, I feel I was prepared for this. Although some might not want their ex-partner to be in their children’s life, I feel it will benefit my kids…and give them diversity in their lives. They will learn how to adapt and make changes better than most. I too at first wanted to do it all on my own, but the the truth in my heart standed out as time passed, my kids need their father too. I felt it will keep them well rounded and balanced individuals. Kids adapt to almost anything, but when it comes to a divorce…it could be tramatic. I believe if we work together with the other parent, the kids will see that change can be okay, and that both parents love them. Kids just want to know they are loved, and supported. So being good examples in their lives could just be the factor that saves them from their sadness and future problematic habits.
