Does anyone else love the lyrics of the Indigo Girls as much as I do?
I know that my family does not and I had to hide my listening of their CDs to avoid their comments. But no longer.
"Stronger than the monsters beneath my bed."
"The less I seek source from some divinity, the closer I am to fine."
I am drawn to listening to them once again during this transition time in my life, from married to single. That and my writing keep me connected to the source of my peace.
Mostly I have made it through this transition intact, but there have been casualities, mostly other people who do not know how to deal with this break up. I admire those who have stuck it out with my ex-husband and myself — those who have wanted to learn how to cope with the separation of a couple they thought had it all together. I have forgiven those who cannot understand or who fear the separation of two people who have been together for so long.
I just came from having cocktails and dinner with my ex. It was nice and sweet and comfortable. But we both acknowledged the rightness of our decision. I can guarantee that the same dinner, if it had occurred while we still lived together, would have been none of those things.
"Honey, it's not for the weather or the lack of loving you."
