I’m not really a fan of romance novels, but Richard Gere and Julia Roberts movies still sometimes make their way through my weekend DVD list. I guess there’s really a hopeless romantic in each of us that burns strongly when fanned by tales of love.
A divorce decree is virtually the proverbial “pail of water” for those who keep on dreaming that love stories always end up the way Danielle Steel wants them to. Indeed, a Stephen King novel is sometimes more believable than those rosy paperbacks that usually end up as New York Times’ #1 bestseller.
Vital records, such as divorce decrees, chronicle the various facts in our lives. Although it speaks of a period or moment that is sometimes worth forgetting, it shouldn’t be relegated to the “Recycle Bin” of our brain. The document may not tell a very desirable tale, but it is important (and sometimes entertaining, too) just the same.
