This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for August 10, 2007:
My divorce was a defining moment in my life. Before I finally made the decision to leave my ex-husband, I was meek, quiet, subservient, fearful, sick, withdrawn.... In the year prior to the huge dramatic conclusion oF my marriage, I started to gain confidence and found my voice. Even though it ended horribly, with my children and I living in a homeless shelter, it was an incredibly eye-opening experience. I could now be open to all of the possibilities that were available to me. I could assert myself, and take care of my children, and begin to heal that poor, wounded child that I had been for so long. I grew up, to put it plainly. I wouldn't trade the experience for anything, because it was the beginning of my "becoming", my "being".
