The Weight of Failure
“Every time I say ‘ex-husband’ I feel what I am actually saying is ‘I am a failure. Look at the fat 31-year-old single divorcee.’ I hate ever showing weakness, and especially my failures. I am still working to forgive myself for this failure. I know it was a joint failure, not just my fault. But I am still rebuilding my ego, my belief in myself, and my ability to heal.” (summer 2015)
