I just finished an interview where I said I would encourage every woman who is experiencing physically abused to get a divorce and the other panelists looked at me as if I had gone crazy.
Do you guys think it's ok to stay in a marriage where your "husband" beats up on you?
I am clear about this:
If a "husband" beats my daughter.
I will personally pack her bag, buy her a new house, and hire/pay for a divorce lawyer.
There is no basis for physical abuse in my world.
What if your colleague (at work) does the same thing your wife did/does, would you beat her in the office?
You would exercise restraint so that you don't lose your job, right?
Why can't you do the same with the mother of your children?
*experiencing physical abuse
One immutable commandment:
Thou shall NOT beat your wife.
AKA love thy neighbor as thyself.

As I reflect on my journey through my 40s, I have compiled ten invaluable lessons that I believe hold value for individuals in their 20s, 30s, 40s, or even 50s.
1/10 Time Flies: Enjoy the Present Moment: One of the most important things I've realized in my forties is how quickly time passes. It's crucial to embrace each moment and make the most of it. Cherish the present because it's the only time that truly belongs to us.
2/10 Failure Leads to Growth: Mistakes and setbacks aren't the end of the road but stepping stones toward personal growth and improvement. Embrace failure as a valuable teacher, as it provides lessons that help you move forward on your journey.
To navigate it successfully, we must understand the imperatives of each decade and fight to win one decade at a time.
Let's explore the adventures of the 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s together.
