A new perspective???

I attended my first Divorce Care class this evening. Profoundly sad - the stories and heartaches that were shared / mine included. I looked around the table at the 20 some people - each of us flawed - but each of us reeling from the loss. Young, old, male, female. We were each broken. Yet compassion was palpable. I felt that God was truly present in the kindness of strangers. It was healing just to be there. All the stories were different - yet eerily similar. The WAS just left and began their lives with someone else leaving their spouse in the wake. I keep going back to a phrase a friend of mine and my XH's said after he interacted with XH - he said "IB - XH has a God-sized hole in his heart.". The Was' who were described this evening each had the same characteristic.

I am very glad I went.
