Well, it's been five months since I got my freedom, and I've never been happier. For the first time in my life, I have peace in my own household--Free of my biological mother's abuse, and free of his. My daughters and I have changed our names to my maiden name. We are no longer connected to the past. It feels so good to sign or say my last name and know it's really legally me. There are times I wish I could have fought in court, but I was an emotional wreck. Besides, there was no need, Jehovah took care of us. I'm free and that's all that matters. I can come and go when I want; no worrying if he's going to see, or hear me. I feel safe; no looking over my shoulders. My daughters are happy and moving forward. Thank you, Jehovah.
Jehovah is providing well for us; He always has. But this incident has taught me how I needed to improve in that area. He always comes through, even when you're destitute and down to $17.00 in the bank. Because of Him, we are able to pay for an apartment every month, and buy all the necessities we had to do without for years. All this while my oldest daughter is still in school, and my youngest is working at a low-paying job.
I'll be glad when I won't have to do this back and forth signing papers and having to pay the lawyer every time this happens. But it's over; I'm free of him, and boy am I so glad, happy, thankful...you name it! I'll never have to look at him in his evil, ugly face on a daily basis, and hope I never will; never will he be able to dominate or abuse me ever again. I've got a new life, and looking forward. And no longer will I have to deal with the two that turned their backs on their sisters and me. As far as I'm concerned, they're dead. I never had sons; But I do have two of the best daughters any mother could dream of.
The purpose of this blog was to record my experience through this entire legal separation process. And now that's it's over, you know what it entailed, what my daughters and I went through. Was it all worth it? Without a doubt! Would I go through this again knowing what it would do to us emotionally? Without thinking twice! Even though I was broken, Jehovah got me through it; Got us through it. And now it's time to go forward. To concentrate more on doing what Jehovah asks of us the best that we can. And hopefully, see the day His kingdom ends this wicked, immoral system and begins governing His people with peace and righteousness forever. Tomorrow we celebrate the death of His son whose life made this a certainty. May you too be a part of that glorious future one day. Goodbye...
