		<description>Kari,

Thanks for writing. So glad to know that you have found happiness again. A psychologist friend of mine once told me that it is OK for your kids to see you sad so long as they see you recover. Life isn&#039;t always rosy as we all find out sooner or later, but it is an important life lesson to learn that with time and patience we will prevail, life marches on and happiness comes to those who fight for it. Best of luck to you and your new family. Stay tuned for a new post I am writing called &quot;How We Did It&quot; about how we made the move, combined our families and lived to tell about it.

		<description>I definitely agree, things do get better much better, but we don&#039;t realize that till it happens. 
I seperated from my ex almost 3 years ago, divorced for just over a year. He was a jerk, but it was still the hardest thing I ever went through. I was depressed and cried day and night...for months. My kids were starting to feel my pain and they too were depressed. Then I started going out a lot and partying. (not something i would normally do) That lasted for almost a year, until I met my current boyfriend. Now I am happier then i have ever been....most of the time. I have 3 children of my own, and he, who is a widow, has 3 as well. We are the Brady bunch. 3 girls 3 boys. Not yet living together, but are in the midst of buying a house. So, that&#039;s my story. 

Thanks for your stories. I am really enjoying reading them</description>

		<description>I am convinced we are living the same life.  I am so glad to be reading...  When we know better we do better - I am sure this blog is touching several women.  So many of my friends have asked how have I survived divorce and found love and peace.  It hasn&#039;t been the easiest path but women who are experiencing the pain of divorce must realize things will change and if you put some time and energy into healing and focusing on strength amazing things can come of it.</description>
