Eat Pray Love

Eat pray love - is that the natural progression after divorce?  In actual fact it is pretty close. Losing ourselves and drowning our sorrows in the ice cream bowl is cliché but true.  After that, praying to God to rid us of the pounds of fat and pain is also accurate.  That leaves love and I am not sure that comes quite so easily.  First there is learning to love yourself again or maybe for the first time.  Divorce leaves scars - simple as that. No plastic surgery is going to totally remove the scars but introspection, therapy and time will certainly fade them . Do not rush into finding new love and when and if you do - know that those scars may be faded but they are there.  Take the time to trust and love but also be true to yourself and to your lover about the scars as they are a part of you to love as well.

So the title might better put  - eat , pray ....................love .
