When it finally sank in that I would no longer be seeing 6 and 2old daughters everyday anymore, it felt strange and disturbingly uneasy to consider the future. It seemed like I had lost everything.
Complicating the custody decision was the 100 or so miles that stretched from my front door to my ex’s house. I had no choice when I moved out of town: kicked out of my own house, I was living in a small apartment with the kindest Korean landlords but a head-full of confusion.
My half-hearted suicide attempts were ultimately thwarted by my parents, who packed me up and drove me home to live with them. And so begins a new chapter of my life.
I can’t believe I got so far with a head so empty.
I hope to share with you on this blog the wisdom I’ve learned over these past six years. Tumultuous at times and a constant challenge, living away from your children will probably be one of the most difficult things you’ll ever do.
Make the most of your children’s visitation times NOW and always. A daughter needs a dad. A son needs a hero.
Write up a little something about yourself here. Something short and sweet, or longer if you'd like.
