Anniversary of Sorts

I'm sure I've noted this in past years but didn't want it to pass by this year without a mention.

Today is the anniversary of the day I was married, 42 years ago. It didn't last and after many years of no contact and no idea what was going on in her world, I reconnected with my ex four or five years ago and now we text and touch bases every few months.   

What else is there to say? I obviously wish things had worked out. It took years to make peace with the hell of separation and divorce and with feeling like I failed.

I still have emotions that I have never been able to describe. 

But I survived!! There were times when I thought I might not. There were times when it seemed too difficult. I reached an understanding of people who don't take it through personal turmoil. I don't see it as a weakness. I'm proud that I made it through those times.
