The end of my marriage was not easy for me.
But once I accepted that it was inevitable… I chose to move on with resolve.
I knew that no matter how much I loved my soon-to-be ex-husband that he no longer wanted to build a life with me and that forcing it… would not create the outcome I longed for.
Often it is hard to move on… hard to say out loud what I know to be true in my heart… hard to say something that may hurt someone I have loved, still love…
But I know now, that if both partners are unable to find a perfect fit together, at that particular time in their lives, it really is best to let go, no matter how difficult, and move forward with resolve to a new life… a new opportunity… one that may be exactly what I have been looking for.
Today, I choose to have faith on my path and move forward with true resolve.

“Dear God, help me to have strength in my darkest hour. Help me to have clarity and faith as I choose to walk forward on my own.”
Daily Divorce Meditations 
But how? How do you let go? I want to and don’t know how to stop loving him.
Oh Meg, I feel for you… I really do… I remember that feeling and I know how your heart hurts. One of my least favorite things to hear when I was in the middle of my despair was… “Time will move you through” but I cannot tell you how very true it is.
I did my best to take care of myself physically, emotionally and spiritually. I filled my time with activities I enjoyed with good friends and each time I caught myself thinking about “him” I would actually say the word “stop” and make my mind let go of my obsession. I’m here. D.
Having the resolve to move on is so tough. I know what it’s like to try to hang on to how you feel, or felt. I’m still wonder how he’s doing at times , but now the memories are learning to stay where they belong – the past.
It takes awhile….. I rarely think of anything to do with my ex now unless it directly relates to an event our adult children are involved in… 🙂
