Divorce: The sad goodbye

I was stunned to hear another notable figure had divorced from his wife. Two days ago, another celeb had walked away.

In all the cases, the couple had children.

I don't know why I felt broken. I am aware the world is imperfect and there will be such sad incidences, but maybe what I find more appalling is the general decline in the regard for marriage. I guess I am someone who still thinks 'old-school', but in all the misunderstanding and quarrels that may parents had, they stuck - and that's what I have come to understand as what marriage is all about...sticking through good and bad.

Clandestine!

Now, that morning started normally.

I’d said my good-byes to my wife in the morning, and went off to do some business - I do some MLM on the side for extra income.
Now, I did not hit my left leg on a stone or see a black cat cross my path or an owl on a power cable – or any other silly superstitious stuff. I tell you, it was a regular day.

So there I was trying to get and fill an order form, a simple order form. I turned to a lady that happened to be standing next to me to ask for a pen.

It was just like that. No fireworks anywhere – I turn and say “May I use your pen, please?”

She obliged – and I was grateful.
