We are flawed.
That's just how it is.
But, minus a few exceptions, I believe we are good, to the core.
When it comes to love, a good match is essential.
And not everyone is a good match. And that's okay.
But when two people find "a good match" in each other, they are then faced with a choice....to love or to not.
Love is a choice.
And without making that choice, even the best paired couples will never make it. The flaws, that we all have, whether great or small will inevitably become too much, insurmountable.
But, when we choose to love, with all we have, that's it. That's all that matters. Flaws, habits, pasts, quirks don't matter, they become tiny hills, even mounds, that we walk over hand in hand.
There will always be a reason not love, if we're looking.
But I believe there will always be a million reasons TO love, if we're looking, if we choose to look and choose to love.
Love is a choice.

Being divorced in little ol' Happy Valley isn't easy, but it is definitely an adventure. And what's the point of having a great adventure if you can't share it... So I am going to share my adventure with you!

Things are different than they are
Some days are weird.
I've been divorced officially for a year today.
That's weird.
A year ago my life was different.
But, yesterday my life was different too.
Some days I wonder when my life will be the same. But really, I don't think that will ever be the case.
The power comes in knowing, and accepting that change will be the only constant.
Because if I know that life will always be changing, then I can always be ready to embrace it.
Today, I embrace the change that happened one year ago. No my life isn't any easier than it was then, in many ways it's harder.
But.
The change is good.
I've grown.
And in another year, my life will be very different than it is today.
So I will ride the wave of change, and I will do my darndest to enjoy that ride.
Because this is a ride no one can get off of, not even death will give you a break.
