The Countdown

The countdown is on – my divorce will be finalized on Monday, May 12th. It's hard to believe it's been months since I filed for divorce after our relationship came to an end in January. The truth is, our marriage had been over for a long time, but I held on for the sake of our 10-year relationship and the family we'd built together.

In the beginning, he had my heart, and I thought love would be enough to overcome our struggles. But as time went on, it became clear that staying would only lead to more pain and suffering. When a breaking point came, I knew I had to take action. Filing for divorce was the first step towards freedom.

The journey hasn't been easy, and there were times when I felt like a failure for not being able to save our marriage. But the more I reflect on it, the more I realize that leaving was an act of self-preservation. I had to prioritize my own well-being and the well-being of my children.

As the finalization of my divorce approaches, I'm filled with a sense of relief and hope for the future. My children are resilient and understand the situation; they're even excited for this new chapter to begin. I'm proud of myself for taking control of my life and doing what's best for me and my family.

✨️To anyone going through a similar situation, I want to say that there's no shame in prioritizing your own happiness and well-being. Sometimes, it takes courage to walk away and start anew. Here's to new beginnings and a brighter future!✨️
