I don't actually view it as a failed marriage. I always said he was an excellent choice for my first husband. He was the best friend I ever had, my partner in everything. Had I been more successful in persuading him to leave a crazy cult we'd probably still be together. 

I will always love that guy. We just got to the point where even if we were right next to each other we'd always be alone. We would have had cute kids though. Bluest eyes you've ever seen and blonde as they come. Smart too. He is one of the smartest people I've ever met. Who just picks up Vietnamese? I worked my ass off to learn that language, he was just a natural, like he was at everything. He was actually great at anything he ever tried to do. Except us. 

The Universe always takes care of you - I've learned that. My best friend back in the day, she could instinctively tell how I was feeling by how I looked. Even if I looked fine, she'd know if I was wearing too much makeup I was covering something. 

I walked into work yesterday and my current bestie just looked at me and said, you're not doing great today. Me: What do you mean? Her: You're wearing your switchblade necklace. And that's when I knew I've come full circle. 

All this time I've been feeling my way through the darkness trying to find the light. I didn't know how lost I was until I found a different path and learned how to navigate it.

I still don't know how everything will end, I'm not sure of the outcome of all these life changing decisions. But I have no regrets. :)
