I'm Moving On

The strangest thing happened.

I saw my ex husband, and for the first time, I felt absolutely nothing.
No pain, no sadness, no hate, no love, no friendship-- absolutely nothing.

Divorce is a funny thing, as it changes your perspective on everything.
Everything you thought you would feel and do changes.
You change.

It has been three months since my divorce.
Going into the divorce, I thought I would still be absolutely devastated.
The funny thing is- I'm not.

I'm joyful.
I'm hopeful.
I'm content.

Never in my life have I considered myself a strong person, but now I can see that I am.
By the grace of God, I am strong.
I went through hell, I suffered loss, and I pressed on.
I'm not looking back, but I'm looking forward.

I've let go of my past and I'm moving on.

  1. I remember that day, although I didn't see my ex in person I just ran across our wedding album and threw it out without a second thought. I expected to be devastated but wasn't. Isn't that wonderful? That your happiness isn't necessarily dependent on anyone else? ENJOY your new freedom and built yourself an awesome life, because you don't get a rebate.
