Reality Check: The Instinct to Investigate
The desire for the truth. It has been the catalyst for countless stories of discovery throughout the ages.

Before finding out about my husbands infidelity, I hadn’t … Continue reading Reality Check: The Instinct to Investigate

Strange New World: When You Dream Of Them
I’m back in the home we have lived in and built together, back in the kitchen that we loved cooking in together. The front door opens and suddenly there you are.

Valley Walking: Leaving The Ninety-nine
There have been so many times throughout my divorce where I have been hurt by my husband's behaviour. He turned his back on me so quickly, after all the years together there was no respect, loyalty or care in any of his actions. He turned his back on everything, his vows to me, to our … Continue reading Valley Walking: Leaving The Ninety-nine
Strange New World: Alone In A Crowd
Feeling lonely when you are actually alone makes sense but isn’t it strange how we can feel even more lonely when out in public. It is possible to be in a room filled with people and yet feel more alone than ever. Even though I may be surrounded by people and distractions, thoughts of the person … Continue reading Strange New World: Alone In A Crowd
Valley Walking: Becoming A Yes Person
Divorce strips so much away from you. The initial thing it takes, is of course, your marriage but there is so much more that it can rob you of. It can steal your security, your identity (as a wife or a husband), your friends, your confidence and your hopes and dreams. I am losing a great … Continue reading Valley Walking: Becoming A Yes Person
