1 year ago today

I became a free woman. It was a year ago today that I walked into the Chattham County courthouse a married woman and walked out a single woman. Thinking about that statement makes me wonder about a lot of things in life. I honestly feel that it too easy to get divorced in this country. But sometimes, it is for the better. And in my case, it has been for the better.

I worked on a gift today for my mom that involved some letters from my grandfather to my grandmother. I realized how much he really loved her. I know in my heart that I will one day find that same love. There were times I found myself smiling and other times in near tears because you can read the pain in his heart when he was away from his family when in the process of moving to Florida.

One year ago, I followed through on a decision that I am so glad I didn't go back on. Thank to my friends and family for your support. It means more than you will ever know!
