Divorce is shameful religious wise and culturally. However, a one Immaculate Nantongo has decided to flip the script by publicly celebrating her new status as a single woman.
Nantongo has celebrated her divorce with ex husband by having dinner and cutting cake. The divorced couple have two children together and have been married for about seven years.
Through her FaceBook account (Immaculate Nantongo), happily divorced Nantogo shared photos of herself and the husband having dinner with a cake on the table. She captioned the photos with a long message where she encouranged women to always feel free to leave toxic relationships.
Below is her message;
So finally my divorce is final yeeeeeeey after 6yrs of separation. Today I choose to celebrate an end of something that resulted into two handsome boys. I celebrate the friendship ,the co parenting and the maturity. 7yrs ago I didn’t know we would be at this place sitting together and sharing a meal .how time heals everything… Deciding to let go of the hurt, betrayal and choosing to forgive wasn’t a simple thing but I did and we are in the best place we could ever be
Am not here to glamorize divorce but to tell anyone in a similar situation, divorce is not the end of life. You can still be civil with your ex. Life can still be beautiful but also to let you know that God is not mad at you. Yes he hates divorce but he loves you so much.
No parent would want their child to endure or be killed in a relationship just for the sake of it. If we earthly parents want the best for our kids how about God our father?
God hates divorce for what it does to people, it breaks up families but in the midst of your divorce you can choose to make the most out of your situation. Co parent better. It’s all about giving your kids the best opportunities in life. Making the best decisions for them.
So for one last time, we came together to celebrate the life we had and the individual lives we live.
Happy divorce day to us and to the next chapter of my life
