DIVORCE - THE DECISION

As you reflect back to that special day where you united with the love of your life, you surely thought it would be for a lifetime. After all, you did joyfully repeat those magic words while standing at the alter: "For better, for worse, for richer for poorer; in sickness and in health…" And, now here you are thinking about ending it, and you probably just don't know what to do! The Decision must be made by you, and only you, whether to dissolve your marriage. It really doesn't matter how many family members, friends, or co-workers that you desperately seek out to assist you in this life changing decision because in the end this major life decision lies with you -- and you alone.


Rest assured, no matter the length of the marriage (i.e., a few months or half a life time) most individuals will agonize over "The Decision" and will have a heavy heart while plodding through the field of thoughts about whether to remain in the marriage. One minute you may be fully confident that the only thing that matters is that you get out of this marriage. But don't be surprised if within the next hour, or even the next minute, you will have reassessed the situation in your mind's eye and decided that you can save this marriage, don't want to leave your beloved, or that you most definitely don't desire to step outside the matrimonial circle to which you have become accustomed.


Although at this moment you might have already convinced yourself that you just don't know what to do, rest assured that the answer "lies within." I have decided to blog about divorce because I have met hundreds of people over the years who agonized whether to dissolve their marriage. And, from that experience, I believe that I have gained a wealth of knowledge which I intend to share through my blogging. It is not my intention to sway anyone in his/her decision to "stay" or to "leave" only to assist you in exploring and assessing your situation. Feel free to check back from time to time, if you are interested in this sharing.
