My New Beginning

Today I am divorced.
Surprisingly enough, I'm not sad. I'm actually excited.
Isn't that odd?

I have experienced every emotion under the sun due to this divorce. I was so afraid of how I was going to be once this was all said and done. I imagined myself scared and sad, but I'm neither.
I'm so relieved.

I feel as though a burden has been lifted off of me.
Even though I knew I wasn't happy in the marriage, I didn't realize how unhappy I actually was.
I feel as though my life is my own again.
No longer do I have to walk on eggshells with someone.
I don't have to be suspicious if he's with another woman.
I can buy what I want when I want, and I don't have to made to feel guilty.
I can go wherever I want to.
I can be the woman God intended me to be.

I feel as though I can finally exhale.
