Happy Divorcery!

There are some of us who celebrate our divorce.  Because sometimes divorce is the answer.  The healthy decision.  The most authentic choice to make.  Divorce can be liberating if you were controlled by your spouse.  Divorce can be healthy if the relationship was toxic.  Divorce can be a second chance or a new lease on life.  Because how can we shame someone for staying stuck in something that isn't right for them anymore?  

There can be judgment from those who don't know the whole story.  Divorced adults should not feel ashamed for wanting the best possible outcome for themselves and their families.  Divorced adults should not feel ashamed for wanting to celebrate this if it was a responsible and healthy choice.  It often is!  It's very hard work to get divorced.  It takes a commitment to yourself.  It takes a letting go.  It takes enormous courage.  It takes strength to ignore the loss of relationships from those who don't approve.  It encourages you to reconnect and love yourself.

So for those of you who are divorced, if you want to, go ahead and celebrate!  I see you.  I feel you.  You are courageous, and you are worthy!  You deserve a second chance on love and you deserve to be treated with loving-kindness.  You deserve to get out of a situation that limits you.  I admire you for what you are teaching your children.  Children need to see that options are available.  Children need to see that self-love is the answer.  Children need to see healthy relationship examples, especially the one with yourself.  Children need to live in peaceful environments.  So...Congratulations!  Go Celebrate!

Happy Divorcery!
