Have the courage to trust that
the beautiful butterflies of your life
will return - or not - as life intends.

especially if your marriage had lasted many years.

or perhaps both.
Nonetheless, move past the grief and regret.
No matter how painful, divorce, like all endings,
opens the door to new beginnings.

Move on and let go.
Life can be joyful and rewarding again.
