GOOD THINGS CAN HAPPEN TO YOU


Here are some stories from other single parents about the good times that happened in their lives as a result of becoming a single parent.

"Met the man of my dreams" from Misty

"As life goes by" by Amanda Ludick
I just "stumbled" onto this website today and was so amazed to read what other single parents have to say (stories so similar to my own). I was blissfully, happily married for nearly eleven years when satan heaved havoc through my life, nearly destroying me and my two girls in the process. But God has a better plan, I've learned, observed and grown in all spheres of life and today I can truly say, as life goes by, we certainly have to deal with all kinds of situations but God is there with us every step of the way and He will in His own time restore everything taken from us. I have made many friends over the last four years since my divorce but have not found that "special partner" yet - as I had to sort out my emotional growth and restoration of my confidence and faith but my advice to all single parents out there is : first of all, become sucessfully single!! stand on your own two feet in all aspects of life before you look for someone to share your life with - don't look for someone to share your burdens (no matter what they are) overcome them first and live a happy balanced life, only then will you be truly ready to commit your life and future to someone else.
God bless!

"Starting Over" from Trish
(Thought this might let everyone know that these sort of things happen in the rest of the worl as well. So here's a great story from Trish. JOHN)

When my "husband" walked out on me and my girls, I really didn't know what I was going to do. He left me with no money, and no income. I was a stay at home mom because it was cheaper for me to stay at home with our twins then pay for daycare. Anyway after he walked out I went to the DHS to see what kind of help I could receive. And belive it or not that was the best thing I ever did. They have this program called Power I where they will send you to school to get a certificate in either office admin. or child care. I am now almost done with the year program, and I am planning to continue on with my schooling. I have changed my major to telecommunications. I never would have been able to do this with out the support of my family, and a very caring case worker. And to them I give my thanks and my love.

"Forgive & Forget" from Kim
After a very Turbulent 12 months that are now over,eventually! My divorce is finally coming to an end. I have found God and I have the most precious gift ....... my son! He has shown me that children are so resiliant and that no matter what he has been thru he carries on!
A lot of us single adult folks (Or so we like to see ourselves) can really learn from our children! Lets just stop worrying about our emotions and just remember that a divorce for children is even worse for them. They feel abandoned and unloved. It is our job to LOVE them as they love us ....Unconditionally! I thank God for the son that he has lent me, and thank my son by loving him and ensuring that I am always there for him!!!!
Maybe we should all try to make that our rule to live by! Remember : Forgive & Forget!!!

I found this when I emptied some old boxes after our last move. Haven't got the foggiest notion where it came from, or who it's from. I think it's very apt for all of us struggling along, bringing up our children on our own, specially those who find themselves suddenly single again.
~Living alone requires a certain amount of self-esteem and the ability to do things without the company of others. It also needs a great deal of maturity, for it forces us to draw on our resources and to know ourselves.
Be proud that you are mastering life on your own. You can be yourself without outside approval.~

Thanks Karin. I'm glad you found this. I know it's been a help to me and I'm sure that others will feel the same way. Thanks again. JOHN

"Self Developement" from Ruwaydah

When my status reverted to single, I started reading a lot of psychology books to try and understand who I was and where I was going and amazingly, today, I am a much stronger, more confident person and have the insight I would never have had, had I remained in a destructive relationship. I can honestly say - I love myself and accept myself!
