Divorce is rarely easy or pleasant but it can be a time of positive transition. You have a choice whether to be at the cause of your life or at the effect of it. You can be a victim of your circumstances or a leader through them. Does the way you view the world and the decisions you make determine who you are? Or, does who you are determine your experiences?

Nor does it mean it's a group for men to get together and scope chic …
