Yah, I think I was deceiving myself a bit about coming to terms with my parents' divorce in writing that paper. How I felt about their divorce back then and now is like night and day. Viewing things from the DB prism has helped me to really see that my parents were struggling and were trying their best to deal with their own chit in their own ways. They were flawed human beings with very poor coping skills in handling the natural trials, tribulations and triumphs of a marriage in constant transition.
I think all of us at one time or another opts to don rose colored glasses and believe things that aren't true. I know I was guilty of doing that in the past as well. The important thing is that you DID come to see things clearly. You came out of the other side. I find that kind of strength uplifting.
Happy Easter, Wonka!
