... Read moreDivorce is often seen as an end, but for many, it's also a beginning filled with discoveries—both about oneself and life. In my own experience navigating divorce, the emotional rollercoaster was undeniable, but it also led me to uncover parts of my resilience and unexpected moments that reshaped my perspective. One thing that stands out from this journey is how surprising revelations can come at the most unexpected times. Whether it's discovering new strengths, hidden talents, or even objects and memories that hold deeper meaning than initially thought, these discoveries help in healing and moving forward. For example, while sorting through shared belongings, I once found an old box filled with letters and photos that reminded me not only of the good times but also of the growth and lessons learned. Sharing such storytime moments has been therapeutic and empowering. It’s important to remember that divorce doesn’t define who we are; it merely marks a chapter. Embracing the surprises along the way, even if difficult, can lead to personal growth and a renewed sense of purpose. This journey is unique to everyone, and being open about these experiences helps others feel less alone and more hopeful about what the future holds.

I think this has to be one of the biggest cases of self-sabotage! Founded in 1836, Singapore, Michigan used to be a thriving lumber and port town that aspired to rival Chicago. Ironically, their downfall was actually related to Chicago. After the Chicago Fire, lumber was needed to rebuild the ci
