Divorce is not a punishment, and one can still live a fulfilling life after it. One may constantly blame themselves and even find it hard to move on, but this is a time when one should show compassion and even forgive themselves. While it is an ongoing process that might come with societal shame and judgment, releasing yourself from the mistakes made will help you move on to create the vibrant, fun, sexy, awesome life that you deserve.
