Divorce

Divorce is terrible. It's been terrible for me - yet I know for many that it is the only option in a sad or unhealthy situation. My wife and I had lots of options yet somehow never took them. I will always regret that and I will always wonder why. We both could be difficult to live with but it always seemed easy to overlook. She was/is my best friend and having the marriage pact of our relationship end rips a hole within the very fabric of my being. It seems incomprehensible to me. I knew the day was coming, the day of our divorce and right up to the very moment of it ending I still believed she would take my hand and that we walk out together - knowing we were happier, better, being together than apart. I don't know how to heal from this. I'm told I will. Maybe so. And again maybe I won't. Maybe some wounds don't heal, aren't supposed to heal, a physic scar visible only to the heart. I don't know. It seems there is much I don't know. I do know - divorce is terrible.
