The uneasy pain of divorce
is often mitigated by the
great relief of knowing
that you've managed
to escape the bad
decision of
marriage.

Author's Thoughts:
Written on the date stated this poem: "The pain of divorce" is dedicated to Kate of Surrey who recently wrote and I quote:
"According to a survey, we are supposed to be at our happiest at 39, having a great job, home and soul mate. At 39 I was going through a divorce from my "soul mate" after finding out he was having an affair; was in a job I hated and was living in a rented house. Now, several years later, I am much happier, with a man who loves me, a job that challenges me and my own house. Happiness cannot be given an age - happiness is found when it is found! "
Well said Kate!
