And so it begins....

And so it begins, the new journey of self exploration and preservation. Since my divorce....I'm working hard on the single most important wound I suffered. For me, it's learning to trust again. I'm finding myself needing to know every bit of information and asking so many questions. Too many questions! I can't sit back and trust that the situation will go smoothly or that, as much as I hate to admit, not get hurt again.
With the help of a few wonderful friends, one in particular, has helped me break down some walls that I felt were permanent. I realized nothing is ever permanent, with exception of your love for your child, and that even the most painful of changes are usually for the best.
I'm still trying to figure out who I am. There are days when I feel like I make progress. Then there are those days, which seem to be more often since summer, where I'm taking a few steps back. I need help in learning to trust again..even when someone disappoints you or lies to you.
