Greetings from the other side. I am well. I don't have a lot to say. I wake up each morning with the understanding that I will be parting ways with my wife, that we shall follow different paths. I have grown accustomed to the idea, I don't like it but I choose to accept it. This acceptance has made the in house separation easier. I have a general plan for the future and will fine tune it in the next 2 years while my son is completing high school.
It gets easier if you stop grasping and wanting. Each day you make the best choices to effect change and accept what reality offers. I love my wife and choose to behave with kindness and compassion while surrendering to her desire of divorce. If this is what she wants I will not stand in her way. I will start a new chapter of my life and will fill it with joy and beauty. I choose to live well. I will post from time to time as milestones occur. I wake up each day and enjoy the life I've built, savoring it, knowing the impermanence of all that surrounds us.
