Welcome to my crazy life....

When I was married, as much as I hate to admit it, life was a bit easier. There was a partner there who I could rely on to help out with the kids. Someone who I could trust, that will be there for them and make sure that their needs are met. Now that she's gone, well life has been a bit of an adventure.
I realize a few things now that have made me become a better person (mind you that's very subjective). One, to never take love for granted. When you love someone they are truly a gift in your life. They fill you with what you want, and in turn you try to do the same to them. My love for my ex quickly faded and we got into our routines. We were so focused on other things that we forgot about the most important part of the family.....us. I know now that real love is about being understanding, and patient with one another. To be supportive and nurturing when needed. I took her love for granted and in return, she did the same to me.
Which brings me back to where I'm at now.....divorced father of two little girls. I'm writing this blog to share my struggles and achievements so that other divorced fathers can have something to relate to.  Maybe I can make someone smile who would otherwise be crying. So join me on this crazy ride called life.....I promise to be real and honest and I hope you will do the same for me.
