I feel sorry for what my divorced friends have lost.No matter how earnestly the former spouses try to "keep in touch," no matter how generous the visiting privileges for the parent who does not win custody of the children,the continuity of their lives has been broken.The years they spent together have been cut off from the rest of their lives; they are an isolated memory,no more integral to their past than a snapshot.Intelligent people,they will compare their next marriages -- if they have them - to their first.They may even,despite not having a long shared past,notice growth.What I pray,though,is that they do not delude themselves into believing,like so many Americans today,that happiness is only measurable moment to moment and,in the pursuit of momentary contentment,forsake the perspectives and consolation of history.
There is great joy in watching a tree grow.
