" I was talking yesterday to someone about being a divorce blogger and the whole divorce process and he said to me &amp;quot;You&amp;#039;re really in a good place with it now, it seems.&amp;quot; I agreed. In fact, I didn&amp;#039;t even want to talk about my divorce. I&amp;#039;m even stymied writing any kind of a memoir (and I&amp;#039;ve had an agent ask if I wanted to write one, believe it or not) because I&amp;#039;m just not in that painful, agonizing kind of headspace anymore. I&amp;#039;ve forgiven. He is who he is and I am who I am and never the twain shall meet again. To be honest. we never really met to begin with. We were held together by my single-minded focus on him early on, and then by the glue of our children. That glue was a thousand times stronger than any super glue and concrete mixture for me. I would have stayed married to Ghengis Khan for the sake of my children.  He didn&amp;#039;t feel the same.  And when I say I&amp;#039;ve forgiven, that&amp;#039;s not entirely, 100% true. I forgive him the wrongs he did to me. I forgive him for his portion of the pain and difficulty in our marriage. I forgive him for years of piled-on disrespect, and I long ago forgave him for taking a vacation from our marriage between someone else&amp;#039;s legs. But I will never be able to forgive the hurt he inflicted on our children. I just don&amp;#039;t have it in me. If anyone else had hurt my kids to the level that our divorce hurt them, I would have burned them alive and danced around the pyre. He forced me into part-time parenthood against my will and took from them something that cannot be replaced: an intact family. A friend pointed me to this beautiful video this morning, and that&amp;#039;s where all these thoughts are coming from. This is Phil Kaye, part of Project Voice, performing his incredibly moving spoken word piece entitled: &amp;quot;Repetition.&amp;quot; Maybe someday I can forgive all the way, but I doubt it.
