I don’t wish Single Motherhood on anyone.
It’s not a situation that any woman enters into with glee and racing anticipation - no little girl grows up with dreams of becoming a Single Mom.
And yet, I can say with full certainty: I would not trade the last two years for anything. They taught me more than four years of University, several trips around the world, and four years in a monogamous, committed relationship ever could.
I say this with knowledge of the risk of sounding trite: those two lonely, soul-searching years taught me how to be happy and confident with my tiny party of two.
