I do not regret divorcing you.

I believe that was my finest decision.

Something I'll always be grateful for.

I had no idea I was this clever.

Walking away from you was my wisest decision.

Thank you for the abuse.

Thank you for treating me as trash.

Thank you for all of your insults toward me.

You pushed me towards my destiny.

My forever destiny.

I will be eternally grateful for your brutality.

I shall be eternally grateful for your abusive talents.

Your abuse directed me somewhere better.

I never imagined myself in that place.

God used you to propel me toward my destiny.

I blamed you.

I had no idea that God intended me to stand on my own feet.

I am finally independent.

I labor for myself without reluctance.

I feel fortunate.

Thanks again for the hate and terrible treatment.

I thank God you didn't kill me.
