Divorce to Happiness

Posted On 2010-03-11 , 12:31 PM

Divorce to Happiness


What do you see when you see those three little words, “Divorce to Happiness”?

For me I see this heart torn completely into two parts and then I see a heart back in one piece, but it still has the line where it was broken.
Divorce to happiness
This is what Divorce to Happiness means to me

Divorce breaks your heart, it does not matter if it was you that wanted the divorce or your spouse, it takes the center of you and factures it. Your heart is what keeps you alive, and when it is broken, you have trouble just breathing. And each breath you take hurts. There were times when I thought I could actually feel my heart ache, and to this day I can still remember that feeling. A broken heart needs time to heal.
Divorce to happiness is a healing process; it is not going to happen overnight. In some people divorce to happiness takes years. Others put a Band-Aid on it and tell everyone it is fine. But true healing after the divorce has to come from the inside out. One must try to pull the two halves of your heart back together, because that huge hole is killing you. This time in your life is all about learning:
 
what happened
 
why did I not see this
 
could I have changed something
 
was there a reason they did not listen
 
I should have done something
 
Divorce to HappinessThese are all questions you will ask yourself and many more. But one must go through this, and take responsibility for your part in the divorce. None of us are perfect, we make mistakes but we have to learn from them to become better people. We have to learn to heal. This inward soul searching will begin to heal your heart. You will begin to understand we all have choices, and we make these every single day. And only you have control of your choices no one else’s. This will heal your heart from the inside. And you will begin to feel the two halves start to come back together. The process of Divorce to happiness has started.

Divorce to happiness, is it really possible? Yes, it is but only after you make a commitment to learn, heal, and improve your life. You see the heart that was broken is always going to have that scar down the middle of it. A cut so deep will always scar, but the wound will heal. But you will always be able to feel and see the scar; it is your reminder you are going to make better choices. Happiness does not come because you want it to. Happiness comes because you work at it. Divorce to happiness does not just happen, it take a lot of work on your part. It takes as much dedication as learning a new sport or language. Divorce to happiness is your choice, are you going to fix your broken heart, so you can find happiness after the divorce. It is completely up to you, no one person or thing will ever do it. It has to be your Choice.

Divorce to happiness is possible, but it will be the journey of a lifetime for you. The scar will never go away, but the wound will heal. Make divorce to happiness your life story.
