I Am Getting a Divorce
A Funny Thing Happened On The Way Of My Spiral To The Bottom.
Written on July 1st, 2012
Divorce is costly, it hurts people, kills finances, and kills relationships. I know this, but my soon to be Ex does not, she has never seen one up close.
So as I start to spiral down, shutting down, wanting to quit life (not kill myself), I started to read the Bible, many other books, and pray all the time. Then I started to seek wisdom from very wise men I have carefully selected.
I have always heard that recovering alcoholics, others would talk about taking it day by day, or hour by hour. I have never understood that until now. I am a daddy, I own my own business (which means no time off), and there are many people who depend on my to keep my wits together. So I just gave it up to God, and said this situation is all in your hands. I live hour by hour, and do not think too far ahead. It keeps me from being overwhelmed, and keeps me from losing my mind.
Right after I handed everything over to God, I started sleeping BETTER than a baby. I still have my rough times and bad days at times, but I am able to handle what is coming at me piece by piece.
