I’ve hashed and rehashed my X and my marriage to death because it was necessary at the time, but the words have served their purpose and I no longer feel the desperate urge to reflect and make sense of it all. It happened. It’s over. The wound has healed cleanly because I leaned into the pain until it didn’t hurt anymore.
I love this so much. I'm nearing the end of the rehash, leaning into the pain as I need to and I'm finding that I need to less and less.
*Re: "Dad, Mama in not your friend." my kids are older (19,23,27) - eldest said that if X tells him one more time "I love your mom" he's gonna punch him dead in the face. lol Your son is wise beyond his years. They see it.

Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
