My Life (Eleven Years Later) Within the confines of her hurting heart there was a desire to be rid of me. So she procured all the necessary papers and one fresh day in May she filled a divorce decree. Finally she had taken some action. Finally she would know the satisfaction of being free of me. Her friends agreed with her. They said to get on with the show. A new life would be gained once she accomplished her goal. So she did and soon my new life began. I was no longer a family man. I began a new life without my precious sons and without my sweet wife. None of it seemed to be real. You tell me how a man should feel when all his goals are thrashed and he's thrown out like yesterdays trash. I know that I will always remember the day. The day it felt like an angel of strife had effectively ended my life. JamesLee November18 2002 |

I agree it's a pain that seems unbearable when in the midst of it. However, time really does heal. Just curious... does 11 years later mean 11 years after the marriage or after the divorce? Not sure where you are with that. Wishing you the best. Deb |

JamesMichael, this is so sad. It sounds just like my brother. He and his wife were married for over thirty years. Their divorce has devastated him and he has turned to alchohol to try to feel the emptiness that he feels. He used to be an ordained minister of God, too. Please pray for him. He needs it very much. Right now he doesn't want to accept the help of my parents or myself. "Love makes the world go around" |

(big hugggsssssss) Oh James, my heart goes out to you, sweet friend, I send angel hugs to you and to Ethel's brother too for I can understand how painful it can be though I know there is but one angel that will always be faithful to you you will find! (sigh) My thoughts are with you, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet James, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you!
