For the last two years, my brother has been going through a nasty separation/divorce process. It has been harrowing for two reasons: he is the first person to have gone through anything like this and he also is the first person who had a judge order a 50/50 split of matrimonial possessions between him and […]
Simple things are really the best, aren’t they? Playing a leader in real Life is exhausting. It can be mentally, physically and emotionally draining. That is the truth.
