“I didn’t know if it would even be possible to find love after divorce, but I met my true match when I was 40, right when I least expected it. And at 44, I had the child I never thought I’d have. If it hadn’t been for these late-in-life events, I wouldn’t have found out about the cancer inside me until it was too late. They discovered it during the C-section that brought our daughter into the world. All I can say is, never question the timing of the universe!” -Joanna Montgomery

“Nahla, my red-nosed pitbull is love in the most perfect way for me. She watched as my marriage crumbled in the hands of my abusive husband. Though she couldn’t save me physically — I had to do that myself — she saved me emotionally. I credit my strength and bravery to her. She was (and is) a steady ear to listen and paw to hold.” -Jenny Sampley

“Three years after my divorce, my daughters Emily and Sarah define love for me. They exemplify the true meaning of unconditional love: so pure, honest and true. They love without fear, nor judgement of others. They don’t hold grudges or count rights or wrongs. They show me the true meaning of love. After the divorce I thought I wasn’t capable of finding that love again but my children remind me daily that I never lost it.” -Susan Grace

“Divorce, for me, has meant happiness. Don’t get me wrong, divorce is hard as sh*t…but then that wasn’t far off from how married life was for me. My life is so much easier now. I can be a better, happier mom for my kids. I’ve also had a lot of fun meeting new people and I recently met a guy who was also going through a divorce and has kids who are about the same age as mine. Neither off us is ready to jump into anything serious, but both agree that we enjoy each others’ company. Life is good!” -Erin Delpercio
