Divorced for 13 Years

Looking back on so many years, Zhao Luping and I have gone from a passionate love without any hesitation, to a stormy and fierce quarrel, to a tired marriage that we disliked each other. The happiness we once had has become a thing of the past, and the sweetness we once had has turned into bitterness. Can anyone predict the future of marriage? Staying in a broken marriage is painful, and so is divorce. Not to divorce is to choose the pain that you have become accustomed to, and this pain is destined to be endless and elusive; to divorce is to choose the pain that you have not yet become accustomed to, but there will definitely be light. I have experienced all these pains. Thirteen years after my divorce, like Wen Jia, I have become an independent, brave and optimistic woman who dares to love and hate. I am very glad that I bravely ended that painful marriage. I am even more fortunate that I have a daughter who is as warm as a cotton-padded jacket. I have walked out of the darkness and welcomed the light. I like myself like this.
