When I got back to my car, there was a text from my mom. “I’m here for you, sweetheart. Call me when you’re ready. Also, here’s the number for a good divorce lawyer.”
This Christmas wasn’t what I expected. Instead of the celebration I’d hoped for, I was given the gift of truth – painful, but necessary. Now, I’m facing a new beginning. A new year that’s about rediscovery, healing, and finding happiness on my own terms.
Life is unpredictable, and sometimes, all we can do is pick up the pieces and move forward.
What would you have done differently if you were in my shoes?
