Dear Reed Copsey, Jr.: Thank you, asshat!
(Warning: Strong language within) Today, I am grateful for my asshat ex-husband. For one reason, and one reason only: By being the asshole you were, and treating me with absolutely no respect and basically throwing me out on the street, you have allowed me to follow the shocking, overwhelming, and often traumatic path I've had to find to get to where I am now. Despite its own problems, it is one of the best places in life I have ever been. Thanks to you being the self-centered, egotistical jerk that was turning into your prick of a father; the coward who seriously thought you were upholding our marriage vows by sitting me down out of the blue and telling me you wanted a divorce when I had no clue, I have been able to find my beshert. I will be married to someone who actually cares about me. All of me, despite my faults. The man who I love more than I have ever loved in my life. So thank you, Reed, for causing the deepest, darkest periods of my life because of your selfishness. It is because of that swirling maelstrom of darkness that I am able to see the light that shines on me now. For everything else in life, you can buzz off. From this point forward, you no longer exist to me. So long!
