Risk and Reward

Grass isn't always greener...

DIVORCE.

I never dreamed this would become my reality.

But it is.

After feeling neglected and alone for far too long, I end it,

Blindsiding my husband in the process.

He's hurt, torn, and confused,

Never expecting me to leave.

His pain tears at my heart, begs me to stay.

And I almost do.

Almost.

Moving on isn't as easy as it seems.

The memories tap at my conscience,

Reminding me of what I'm missing,

What I used to have.

But, I walked away,

From the man I promised forever,

Possibly making the worst mistake of my life.

I've let go, given myself a promise of a new life, new hope.

But does the other side have more risk than reward?
