Being 40

Turning 40 was interesting. Still am 40, going to 41. Mid-life crisis? Sure- big time.

At 40 I look back at my achievements & many failures. Coincidentally last year the divorce happened- I would not recommend divorce if anyone asks me, unless it is really absolutely necessary. For example, if the husband is a wife-beater.. or he totally neglects the family.

However, on the plus side things are getting better by the day. Initially when the divorce happened there was a period of loss/ grief/ self-doubt/ loss of confidence.. and I had pretty much decided that I will never be able to love any man again.. but guess what, the heart can heal. 

The pain comes back once in a while- a friend shared with me this wonderful advice- acknowledge the pain, mourn the loss, cry if you have to but once you forgive the person, your soul will be totally free... and NOTE TO SELF: drop the drama act! 

Life is good now. Getting better by the day. Children are healing & have become adjusted to the schedule when Mum & Dad lives in separate houses. 

When things get over my head, that's the time to go to the gym & sweat it out. Plus point = healthy body. Still working on the abs though.

So. Welcome to 2015. Welcome to my 41st year of life. Loving all the many blessings granted to me.
