Not so Happily Ever After

My mother served my father divorce papers about a week ago. If you all read my book or even read some of my past blogs, you know that my parents' relationship has always been rocky. I've been saying since I was younger that they should just get a divorce instead of being miserable together. Now that it's happening, I don't know how to feel. I feel for both of them even though my mom has been harsher, but I understand her. I understand the desire and push for "more" and my dad is the definition of steady. Truth is they were never right for each other, but obligation kept them together. I'm just concerned about my dad because he is loner, like me, and doesn't have people or "stuff" to occupy his time. I'm also worried about my family as a whole and how we will manage this new reality. It's just a lot of worries and not to mention how this will turn out for my mom and our church. Why does this have to be my family? So many healthy, happy families and mines have been plagued with one generational curse after another. Honestly, I don't want to handle this. I don't even want to think about it because I have enough problems on my own. The saddest part was when dad called my mom "the devil." As a child and follower of Christ for someone to see you in that light is disheartening, but it's true. Y'all please pray for my family.
