At 3:30 today my Divorce was final. This has been one hell of a long, hard, life changing 6 months where there were really difficult times when I didnt know if Id get through them. But on the flip side of that, there have been some amazingly positive aspects throughout as well. There are a handful of people who know every detail about what brought this ending of my marriage about (at least from my perspective), and I will always keep it that way. Personal business is reserved for those who have had my back, supported me, never ONCE judged me, and took the time to ask me what happened without believing what they heard from someone else about me and my life. To those people (and you know who you are) Thank you for loving me. Thank you for being my friend when I needed it most. Thank you for listening to me when I needed to vent. Thank you for showing me what the meaning of TRUE family is, the kind of people who see thru the bullshit of rumors, who loved me UNCONDITIONALLY, made me laugh when I wanted to cry, helped me to see that happiness isnt the result of circumstances, but how you respond to them mentally. Family isnt blood to me anymore. Family are the people who see the best in you, who lift you up when you are down, who are there for you in your struggle when you cant see the light at the end of the tunnel, but they point you in that direction. Family is loyalty. And I couldnt be more proud to have the friends I have to call my brothers and sisters:) I have seen my children go from hurt and upset and not understanding, to accepting it, and now to see them happy and adjusted to this change between their Mom and Dad, is an extremely comforting thing as a parent. All I want for them is happiness and for them to thrive, and their Mom and I have worked hard at keeping them focused on a relationship with both of us. We will continue to do that as their quality of life is most important. I will end this long post with this... Sometimes good things fall apart so that better things can fall together. Life doesnt stop for anyone. It keeps moving forward whether we want it to or not. The past does not define me, and it never will, but it has molded me into the man I am today and I wouldnt go back and change a thing. I like who I am now and I will continue to put 150% into getting better as a man, father, and friend. I will always love and support my children no matter who they become or what they believe, and will raise them to work hard and treat others the way they want to be treated. This divorce is not the end for me, its the beginning of the best years of my life! Thanks for reading:)
