the group I joined is actually a Divorcecare group, which I think is going to be just what I need. I dealt with a couple of the feelings in the last year, but haven't really wanted to push through and take the time to acknowledge it, and really HEAL from it. The group is co-ed but we do split into separate group time, I think having men there helps the women from going into straight 'men bashing' mode, which can be easy to do when you feel huge rejection from your former spouse. It is good to hear a mans version of it all and realize, both sides really do HURT even though.. I do know that it's good to be reminded that. It is so easy to be selfish and think you were the only one, when really the whole family and extended family were hugely affected by the decision made to get a divorce. Parts of me still don't want to face the facts.. But it is the BEST thing I can do for my future, and of course Hayden's future. I just want whatever God plans has for me to be, to grow and change and bring life back to my spirit.
