hello, world

They were the conversations I'd been avoiding but the ones I knew I needed to have.

There was the one with my husband, about the divorce, about getting it started, and about moving on.

There was the one with my mother, the one that included her in my life and allowed her to understand my perspective.

and finally, there was the one with myself, the one where I admitted I'd forgiven myself for being happy.

It all happened today and I feel excited and alive, and real. And so completely ready to be on the path I am on.
