---

When a husband informs his wife that he has decided to find his happiness elsewhere, she can fight to hold him against his will--which is pardonable--or she can accept it because she thinks of his happiness first and her own second--which is divine. Time is the only healer of her wounds but they will surely be healed. When the storm of hurt feelings goes completely, a great peace will arise in her. Then she will see that she did the right thing to gain her own happiness too, quite apart from doing the right thing as a seeker.
