Damages

It seems like for a long time there was a lot of residual damage that kept me from being myself. Actually there was a lot of residual damage that made me get inside a shell and kept me from being anything more than shy. I think I wanted to be protected from being scrutinized to the point that someone would leave me again. I think I'm finally snapping out of that and it's great! It only took about 2 years, but honestly thats about the amount of time the experts say it takes.

Divorce leaves a scar that lasts and gives you a new appreciation for ex-wife and mother-in-law jokes, and I still wouldn't change that for anything, but I gotta say it's nice to start to feel normal again.
