Our loved ones -
whether by blood, by marriage, or by choice -
are delicate treasures.
If we hold them too close, they break -
as a butterfly would.
By honoring and enjoying
the freedom of our loved ones,
we gain our own freedom.
Have the courage to trust that
the beautiful butterflies of your life
will return - or not - as life intends.

Move on and let go.
Life can be joyful and rewarding again.

No matter how painful, divorce, like all endings,
opens the door to new beginnings.

and vow never to criticize their nature -
the essence that makes them uniquely themselves.
