Consequences of Divorce

By Benjamin West

People find someone special and marry, creating that family they have always wanted. However, some dreams aren't realized. Love is complicated; the person you fall in love with may not be right for you, they may change over time, or they may not love you. The mistakes we can make to impair our quality of life are infinite.

We have all made choices that we thought were appropriate for the given circumstances and it wasn't until later that we realized we made a mistake. People are caught on the wrong foot when they try to mend their wrong decisions. This is the time individuals have a tendency to alter, and this alteration includes more dilemmas that the majority of the time aren't resolved in a friendly manner ultimately resulting in 2 individuals that once loved one another separating.

Marriage is a bond that unites two individuals. In doing so it also brings together families and friends of the couple. It's one of the strongest relationship bonds known to man. But as strong as it is, it is also one of the most fragile bonds built on trust, love, and mutual understanding of two people and their personalities. This is a paradox of sorts; since the strongest of bonds can turn into the weakest when the fragile strings that holds together breaks and life around the two individual changes so drastically that it is very hard to come to terms to reality, this is when married individuals break up, and the mental and legal toll taken by marital separation takes its toll on the individuals.

Divorce has to the biggest decision in an individuals life, a decision which takes enormous amounts of mental toughness and preparedness to lead life without the person who you once loved and cared for. Marital separation also means starting a new life, life without the mental burden of staying in a relation that has no meaning because the true love has been lost. Separation is a freedom that has liberated many souls of loveless relationships, decisions taken in a hurry, in the madness of momentary passion and infatuations. It gives an opportunity to correct the mistakes, an opportunity that not many get.

Divorce has been a boon in many lives, caught in the midst of a troubled relationship have emerged from the past to make a big comeback and become successful individuals, leading successful and peaceful lives being single mothers and fathers, and bringing up children who have gone on to achieve fame and fortune and also set an example to others.

Owing to the mistakes leading to dissolution of marriage, many break down and have no control over their lives after separations. The major reasons for break ups for these individuals include their ego, individual quirks, and stubbornness.

Marital separation is not always the ideal all in one solution to everybody, but it is for some who have a set goal in life and the will to pursue it. Divorce has and will always be a way to freedom for many troubled lives in the years to come.
