This book has been written in an effort to help promote a better understanding between people everywhere.

When you understand why a person is the way they are and what their motivations is, you will be able to deal with them and the situation far better than before. You will also understand your own motives and behavior in the process.

It is impossible to know about others unless you are intimately aware of yourself.

Most people would also like to know why certain things and people bother them and what they can do internally to create a peaceful state of mind.

I have been teaching divorce recovery support groups for several years. When I first began teaching I was not divorced but separated. My parents did not approve of my marriage from the start and after 36 years of being married I did not want to hear them say, "I told you so," and because of that I was determined not to be a divorced woman.

I began to realize after a year and a half of separation I was only prolonging the pain and confusion and that I needed to go on with my life.

I want you to know what I am not; I am not a psychologist, a therapist or social worker. I have had some training in counseling, but my real education came from my experienced through a long separation and finally a divorce, and through working with divorcees in the support groups. Some of the people that I have worked with over the years extended the time of their personal recovery from divorce because they didn’t know of or weren’t willing to appropriate the resources available to them for recovery and growth. This booklet is designed to help you avoid those mistakes. Relationships create the emotional content of our lives: sadness, anger, happiness and joy are associated with relationships. We are designed to live in and to have relationships.

This booklet is not merely my experience, but is a guideline to recovery and growth in good relationships. My goal for you is for you to be able to say, "Though I wouldn’t wish a divorce on my worst enemy, I wouldn’t trade anything for what I have learned." I would also like to see you become the person you were intended to be and live your life to the fullest. As I look back, the end was truly the beginning. This booklet is one which you will not want to browse through quickly, so please take your time, be honest with yourself, and use the personal journal sheet at the end of each section.
