Crippling fear
Gut-wrenching pain
Blinding anger
Draining depression
And then… time
The tears dry up
The anger subsides
The pain fades
Clarity brings the future into focus
Acceptance frees your heart
The new day has never looked better

Divorce brings out a period of grieving as I have been there once. May God continue to bring you words of strength, compassion, and strength Jason.
