This is interesting to me. You say these are "bad choices". Objectively, Im having a hard time following you. If shes being offered $10 or $20 and she chooses $10, then fine, I agree. Thats a bad choice.

But in this case, is choosing divorce a "bad choice"? Im not necessarily sure thats an answerable question.

Im not sure how valuable it is to make that distinction. But sometimes when got in a rut or started feeling down, I would do what the book says and start from a beginner's mind. If you change your perspective so that it's just "a choice", then how do things look.
