Hey PP... just got on here to check on folks and I'm so glad to see your adventure is all you'd hoped it would be. South America! I hope you have the time of your life!

Interesting how we began DBing around the same time. I wasn't legally married, which in a way made things more challenging but in another made it easier to get to the point you're looking forward to when the divorce is final. I didn't expect the finality of moving out to feel so liberating, but it truly did - and I suspect you'll find the same is true for you. I'm in a great place now. Moved a few towns over into a wonderful community, lots of trees and green and streams - feels like I'm always on vacation. Except that I'm also always working this startup job I love. When I'm not spending time with my kids, who as it turns out didn't move so far away and enjoy hanging out with me sometimes, and spending time with my new girlfriend - she's been a healer and such an unexpected blessing in my life.

When I look back over the past year I also can't believe how much has happened, how much has changed - how much I have changed. And indeed, how much better things are now then I would have admitted they were before the bomb drop.

Hope everything continues to go well for you, PP. Thanks for all your support and hugs during those tough, tough times. Would love to meet you for a beer someday!

Hugs,
Dif
