Divorce: A Trap or an Opportunity to Save the Family?
These past few days, I’ve been thinking deeply—recursively—about my next step. I keep imagining the future, and I miss the days when the sun was shining, happy kids played at the playground, and we were together, joyful and free.
Now, I find myself face to face with a terrifying possibility: divorce.
I tell myself I can handle it. Whatever happens, this feels like the final chapter I’m willing to accept. But I also believe there’s more than one way to change my life and take back control. Right now, I feel stuck—surrounded by unfamiliar grey walls. It’s like being a homeless dog sitting in an empty house, without anyone or anything.
I remember when an old friend once said, “I’m really happy for your success—your strong family, your perfect wife, your handsome kids, your happy life.” But he had been thrown out of his own family like old furniture, discarded and alone.
Now, I look in the mirror and see only myself. But I also see a future version of me, just months away. I remember how I tried to help my friend, offering advice with empathy: “To save your marriage, maybe you need to let her go.” I think my wife heard that, though she said nothing at the time.
Today, I see divorce staring back at me in the mirror. I’m searching for advice, for options—anything. I’m not ready for this. But I need help. I need guidance on how to save my marriage.

I know time heals and changes everything. But right now, this moment still lingers.
