Sometimes a good divorce is better than a bad marriage.
But who takes care of the eldest child?
"The Eldest Child: A Sacrificial Love Story To be the eldest in a family is to experience a unique kind of grief. It's the mourning of a childhood never fully lived, a youth sacrificed for the sake of responsibility. The eldest child is thrust into a role that's both privilege and burden, a position that demands maturity beyond their years. ... They are the ones who deserve our gratitude, our love, our recognition. They are the ones who deserve to be seen, to be heard, to be understood. They are the ones who deserve our everything. And so, let us give it to them. Let us show them that we care. Let us be their rock, their safe haven, their home. Let us be the ones who understand, who empathize, who sacrifice. Let us be the ones who get it – because we are the family.

The Never-ending Nightmare: A Tragedy of War.
A dense fog of sorrow looms over humanity, as the drumbeats of war echo through the ages. In a world marred by conflict, where embers of hatred smolder and flare into infernos, peace is as elusive as a fleeting dream. For each generation that rises, a new wave of bloodshed crashes upon the shores of humanity's heart, eroding the very fabric of our collective soul. In this never-ending nightmare, the ghosts of battles past haunt the living, their cries of anguish serving as a grim reminder of the horrors we inflict upon ourselves.From the scorched fields of ancient Troy to the rubble-strewn streets of modern-day cities, war rages on, scarring the landscape and tearing apart the lives of those caught in its wake. Amidst the rubble and chaos, the vulnerable and defenseless suffer the most, their pleas for mercy drowned out by the roar of artillery and the cries of the fallen. Mothers clutch their children, desperately praying for salvation as bombs rain from the sky. Fathers embrace their weapons, their eyes hardened by the cruelty of war and their hearts hardened by the loss of their loved ones.And yet, despite the harrowing realities of war, the cycle continues to perpetuate itself, fueled by greed, fear, and a twisted sense of duty. Nations rise and fall, their borders redrawn by the whims of power-hungry conquerors. Leaders rise and fall, their legacies forever tainted by the blood of their enemies and their own people. And the common people, the innocents, the everyday heroes? They are nothing more than pawns in a game of thrones, their fates determined by forces beyond their control.In the midst of this hellish landscape, a glimmer of hope remains, like a solitary candle flickering in the darkness. The spirit of humanity, though battered and bruised, refuses to be extinguished. Tales of sacrifice, of heroism, of love that defies even the most devastating of circumstances, echo throughout history, serving as a testament to our resilience and strength. From the beaches of Normandy to the trenches of Verdun, from the killing fields of Cambodia to the rubble-strewn streets of Aleppo, humanity's endless struggle for peace continues.And as the winds of change sweep across the world, the cries of the oppressed and the voices of the peacemakers grow louder. For every act of war, there is a counter-force of compassion, of empathy, and of brotherhood. In the darkness of our most hopeless hours, the candle of humanity burns brighter, its light a beacon of hope in a world too often shrouded in shadows. It is this unwavering spirit, this unbreakable bond between all people, that offers the only real hope for a future free from the horrors of war.In the end, it is not the victors of war who inherit the world, but those who dare to dream of a better tomorrow. As we stand in the ashes of our past mistakes, we must remember that peace is a choice, a journey that begins in the hearts and minds of every person. We must choose to let go of hate, to embrace our common humanity, and to take that first, hesitant step towards reconciliation. For it is only in the embrace of peace, of understanding, and of love that we can finally awaken from the nightmare of war and step into the light of a new dawn.And so, the story of humanity's struggle against war is not one of defeat or despair, but of courage, perseverance, and the unshakable belief in a brighter tomorrow. It is a story of resilience, of compassion, and of the boundless capacity for love that dwells within each of us. As we look to the future, may we find the strength to choose peace over conflict, to choose kindness over cruelty, and to choose hope over despair.And as we travel the long and winding path to peace, let us never forget the lessons of the past, the sacrifices of those who fought for a better world, and the stories that bind us all together. For in the end, it is not the weapons of war that will define our legacy, but the wisdom to choose a different path, to embrace the beauty and diversity of our shared humanity, and to cherish the fragile miracle of life that exists on this tiny blue planet we call home. The story of humanity's struggle against war is not yet over.It is a story that continues to unfold before our eyes, in the faces of the displaced, in the eyes of the hopeful, and in the hearts of the peacemakers. And though the road ahead may be long and arduous, filled with setbacks and challenges, we must never lose sight of the destination, a world where war is nothing more than a distant memory, a relic of a darker past.For it is in the struggle itself, in the moments when we dare to reach out across the chasm of hate and mistrust, that we find the seeds of peace. It is in the small acts of kindness, of empathy, and of love, that we begin to build a better world, one step at a time. And so, as we journey into the uncertain future, let us not lose sight of the truth that binds us all together, that we are all children of the same earth, brothers and sisters in this great adventure of life.For it is only when we learn to see past the differences that divide us, when we learn to embrace the beauty of our differences and the strength of our common humanity, that we will finally be able to break the chains of war and build a world where peace reigns supreme. So, let us walk hand in hand, towards a future free from the ravages of war, a future where the Dance of the Sun is not merely a legend of the past, but a symbol of our shared desire for peace and harmony in this beautiful world we call home.And as we walk this path, let us remember the story of Aurora, the brave young maiden who dared to follow the call of her heart into the Enchanted Forest. Like her, we too must have the courage to seek out the truth, to face the darkness within ourselves and the world around us, and to bring the light of understanding and compassion to the places where it is needed most. For only when we have the courage to dance with the forces that shape our world, to weave the strands of our collective destiny together, will we truly create a world worthy of the name: Peace.And so, the story of Aurora and the Dance of the Sun comes to a close, but the journey towards peace and understanding continues. May we all find the strength and courage to follow in Aurora's footsteps, to dance with the forces that shape our world, and to light the way towards a brighter tomorrow. And as the sun sets on this tale, may its light shine on our hearts and our dreams, guiding us towards a future of harmony and love.

I’ve Never Seen My Parents Kiss. Content Warning.
I’ve often heard people tell the story of their parent’s divorce. They look sad as they say it happened when they were 8, 10, 14, or some other age at which they were aware of what was going, and I’ve always pitied them for it. My parents got divorced so soon after I was born that I never really identified with the other children of divorce. I felt like I had no basis for comparison; I have no memory of the before, and I wasn’t even cognizant of the divorce as it happened. I’d usually shrug my shoulders, act like it didn’t affect me, and reserve my pity for the real victims: those who were old enough to be conscious of what was happening as it happened. But recently, I’ve begun to reconsider.

When children start to grow up
When my daughter was little, and honestly most of her life, I always have done everything for my daughter. I never regretted it. She is most likely going to be my only child. So for me it was my only chance. Though as she is getting older, I know that her independence is also important. She needs to know that she can do things for herself. So I have been getting her to do more and more things for herself. I realized, and always have, that it would mean that she would pull away from me a little bit. It was something that I have been prepared for. Though I always thought that we were very close. I guess I thought that we could overcome it, because we were so close. At least for a few years. I figured it would be a few years before she started pulling away. At least until she was a teenager. Yet here I am. She is only 7, and yet I feel like she is pulling away. Already she doesn't want to listen to me. I am finding myself getting frustrated.
