Yesterday I took half day leave to attend mediation in regard to my divorce. Both of us including our solicitors must attend. As usual, Aaron’s parents also attend, but I did not see any of them. I’m at one end and they are at other. It’s not done purposely; just very coincident that’s all.

Thing went very smoothly, as I have expected. It’s an unexplainable issue, but I just knew he would agree. Therefore it was a very short exchange between our lawyers. He agreed readily to an uncontested divorce and we went on to discuss the amendment of the divorce reason.

From a lengthy 8 pages long reason, we cut it down to 1 page and focus on the main reason – Dinah. Dinah was the main catalyst of our marriage breakdown, and the rest of the incidents were just add-on. Both of us accepted the facts and now we are just waiting for the hearing for an uncontested divorce. All divorce has to go before a judge, sort of a confirmation of the both party acceptance to dissolve the marriage.

I dislike the feeling of going to court. Personally court holds a very melancholy feeling for me. Yesterday as I left, I felt a surge of memories flooding back, a bittersweet memory.

I cherish and love those times when Aaron was thoughtful, even though not a lot. It’s a mixed feeling I experienced, and just hope everything can wrap up soon, so that we can move on. I don’t want to keep holding onto past memories which I know is gone for good.

I hope that’s how Aaron feel too……… I guess mutually our feeling is slowly diminishing over time, thus less anger, that's why we are able to sort thing out amicably..........
