I can't say enough how much I hate divorce. I see it as a plague of sorts and I really don't understand it - but c'est la vie, not my call to make.

Absolutely, completely, 100% agree with both of these statements. They stood out to me as soon as I read them the other day, but I didn't get around to responding until now.
I firmly believe that in the case of most divorces (obviously exceptions include physical abuse, drug addictions, serial adultery...etc.) that all involved (both the children and adults) would be much better off in the long run if married couple would to dig in and do the hard work to get past their issues and stay together. It creates so much pain and future drama for everyone it's hard to justify the short term relief, but unfortunately like you said it wasn't within our control and so we have to let go.
You're doing the work and will be a better man for it. Keep it up.
Best of luck to all out there working through a sitch...
