Why Write This?

I am writing this blog for personal clarity.

I went through and am going through the aftermath of a Divorce from my best friend.  I am publishing this in hopes that others can learn from my mistakes.  I am thinking through my dialog with you to reach my own conclusions about myself.  To say that I want to learn from my mistakes is an understatement.

I had a great family.  Somewhere along the way, it dissolved.

I will cover a great deal of topics.  From what I did to promote the dissolution to what I went through in the divorce proceedings.  How therapy helped.  The actions I took that were important as a male and a father to reach the best possible outcome.

Along my journey, I have learned a tremendous amount about myself and others.  I am not a legal counsel and have no education around legal issues.  That will be your responsibility to research and come to your own conclusions about what is best for you.

I will say however, that I made good moves.  Well thought out.  Intentional.  I tend to handle stress very well and am a good person at my core (well most of me).

The topics I cover won't be proofread or mulled over.  They are simply a collection of lessons and stories that are what actually occurred.  How it felt.  What went through my mind.  What resources helped.  What hurt.

I wish you well on your journey and hope you can be better than I was on your way.
