Today’s prompt is: The finest moment of your life
It could have been the birth of my children, my gaining my University degree, my retirement from work.
But the most life changing moment was leaving my marriage. This moment signalled the end of years of abuse and torment. It allowed me to establish good relations with my children, find my own place in the world and create a life from which I was able to grow.
I did suffer for my decision but as I discovered the price of freedom is priceless. I was aided by the support of my children who knew what my life had been like. Without them by my side, I may not be where I am today.
It’s a decision I have never regretted.

120 excellent words! I know what it’s like to walk away from a hellish marriage. It is hard, but you’re correct. “Freedom is priceless.”
Thanks Joelle….
Standing on the sidelines cheering your courage Michael!
Thank you Lyn everyday is a good day
LOL my legal date of final freedom was, strangely enough, the 4th of July 😀
At least you remember it….if you asked me the date of my divorce I’d have to stop and think….
Been there too. Good post Michael.
Thank you Di
sometimes the hardest choices are the ones that truly set us free 🙂
Yes that is very true for me Pat…
