This is so good, Paige. It takes massive courage to write about those intimate pieces of ourselves. Especially this:
"In my intro post, I mentioned that I was soon to be divorced. Well, now I am officially a divorcee, and that experience, of my marriage breaking down, grieving, healing, and so many tears has shaped me and taught me a lot. Nothing about healing from a broken heart is linear. There are circles, relapses, and times when you inadvertently break your own heart even more. Evolution of a Broken Heart is where I will tell my stories as I healed and began to cope with the grief of my ruined marriage, the trauma of infidelity, and learning to put my life and heart back together. "
This is important work- and service. So many of us hide alone and try to heal under the facade of "oh it's all fine." Well, no. It isn't. And that's normal. It's OK to not be OK.
I love everything about this new endeavor you're undertaking. Excited to read more of your words. ❤️
Thank you! And yes, I realized just the other day that I was doing that very thing. Pretending I was all healed. I’m much farther along than I was a year, or even a few months ago, but it’s not helping me or anyone else to put up the facade of I’m fine and great when the reality is much different.
Congratulations Paige! I've always enjoyed reading EVERYTHING you write. Looking forward to more! I admire your courage and strength to share your thoughts. I'll be here, supporting you every step of the way...
