It’s November and Thanksgiving is only a few weeks away.  Visions of turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce begin to fill our heads.  The holiday is also an opportunity to reflect on all that you have to be thankful for.  If you’re recently divorced, in the midst of a divorce, or contemplating divorce, the holidays can be an emotionally difficult time and it may not seem like you have much to be thankful for.  But think about it, there is definitely something to be thankful for.  Maybe it’s something big, like the chance at a new beginning, or the realization that you are finally rid of that turkey you’ve been married to.  Maybe it’s something small, like being thankful for a good night’s sleep, uninterupted by his snoring, or being able to come home and not have to talk about her day. 

Divorce is never easy, so it can’t hurt to try to focus on the positive things and be thankful for whatever good you can find in such a dificult situation. 

What are you thankful for?
