Although we have not yet filed, the end of my marriage is a forgone conclusion. We are to close on the sale of our house next Monday. From the closing we are walking down the hall to the other attorney's office to sign the dissolution papers. My wife is not interested in reconciliation. I cannot change her mind. I can control what she wants. All I can do is accept and move on.
It has been a month since she left. To this point I have ridden a roller coaster of emotion. It is time to get off and get on with MY life. In the past month I have sold my house, taken a new job and last week moved to a new city. This past weekend I spent setting up house in my new place. Today, I start my new job.
So, today is truly the first day of the rest of MY life. I see a lot of bitterness and anger in many of these threads and I truly and completely understand. I have come to conclude that while necessary, those emotions are counter productive and often self defeating. I am going to try to rid myself of them by focusing on the here and now and making MY life the best it can be. I don't know what the future holds but I intend to grab the helm and steer the ship of MY life from this point forward.
I hope to start making daily posts about my journey forward. By posting this on a public forum, I am in many ways committing myself to this pathway. I hope when I falter, there is some hard talk to get me back on track. I hope when I am successful, that others may learn.
So until later.
