“OK… what would I put in a divorce kit… lord I could have used one… but I had a very supportive family and circle of friends that put up with a lot of my crap and saw me through it. Back to the kit…. candles, light classical cd, bath crystals, and one book that I used which was a big help……Getting Up, Getting Over, Getting On: A Twelve Step Guide to Divorce Recovery (Paperback) by Micki McWadehttp://www.championpress.com/grief/gettingupgettingover.htm”

Oh my Gorgeous …
Oh my Gorgeous Dianne,
Thank you, so much for your tenderness and compassion for others. And for sharing so unabashedly with your sweet emotions. Today you have, touched me, and as the song goes,” I guess it’s something I can’t explain, why this little crystal of rain, falls, from my eye, this little drop of water called a Tear. And so I feel of your sincerity and I too a shed a drop of rain.
YSA, Mike

Amen. Well-spoken, FloridaSweety. I could not have gone through what I have without Him. Thank you for reminding us to acknowlege Him in good times AND bad.

I have a strong …
I have a strong belief in God, not everybody does but I do, I leave it to him to get me through everything that comes my way. I believe that God never gives us any more than we can handle and with his help we make it through everything but you must have faith. Keep God in your life, don’t just ask for help during the bad times but thank him every single day for all that he has done for you. With his help everybody makes it through everything, but you must have faith.

Hurt and pain is …
Hurt and pain is content, when the smoke clears the devastation can be seen and felt. I cry so,long that my eyes are mere slits. When I fall asleep, I awake with a sizing fear that I no not where it comes from, so I sit up in such a horrible griping panic, feeling that my heart will explode from my chest.I sit still trying to calm myself down.I experience this on a daily basis. But I realize that at the end of the day,I have made it through.

I would definitely …
I would definitely add a pop of fun music with a CD. A colorful bouquet of flowers would add to the zing too. Music does wonders to your soul. So, that is what I would add. Divorce isn’t the end of life. It is merely the begining of a new one. So, I would start afresh with a bunch of new Happy and Peppy songs.

Learn the location …
Learn the location of the nearest Fisher Divorce Recovery Seminars and offer to take your friend their first time. It is very difficult to go the first time. The Seminars offer comfort, education, guidance and fellowship.

And then it disappeared there. One can search for the word Rebuilding to find the web site, related book and Seminars.
