I was listening to the radio today,Janice Joplin I believe. The lyrics of her song went something like "freedom is just another word for nothing more to lose." Listening to these words brought clarity to a situation in my life.
As strange as that might sound it is true. I have been separated for several years now. Last July I was served divorce papers. Here it is almost March and it is still going on. Just as I thought would happen, the should have been x along time ago let his attorney fire him.
Mind you since I was told last July by email and yes I said email that I would be being served there has not been any communication with the x to be. I plan to keep it that way. But, I am baffled by the fact that last July it was of the upmost urgency to be divorced right then and there.
The upside is that my attorney, a very smart man I might add, filed for a cross petition that in the event something like this happened my case would continue. So I met with my attorney last Tuesday. We went over what it would take for me to settle. My attorney had sent notice to the x to come in for a deposition on 2/14.
Today I received papers in the mail from my attorney because he has now filed sanctions againist the x as he did not show for this meeting. Which brings me back to the line in the song. I have nothing left to lose and have not had for a long time. This realization brings me peace so that I am ready to face whatever may come from this situation.
