Seven years, today.

Another anniversary.

Today marks the seventh anniversary of my divorce becoming final. I have now been divorced from longer than I was married to my first wife.

I still have memories, yet it feels like a lifetime away. The hardest memories are the fond ones as they remind me of what was lost.

Yet, I am thankful.

I have an amazing family that I never would have had. God has given me a double portion and then some in blessing my life.

It is a poignant day–some sadness and some happiness intermingled.

However, I find as the years roll on that the divorce fades in importance or relevance to me as the new life God has given me becomes much stronger and beautiful.
