EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON

Life’s events, whether positive or challenging, they happen for a reason—not just by chance but with purpose.  This belief can serve as a source of comfort and guidance, helping us navigate adversity and find meaning in our journey. At the same time, it can be viewed as a way to avoid responsibility or to explain the unpredictable chaos around us. In the end, what we choose to believe depends entirely on our individual perspectives and personal experiences - the power to interpret life’s mysteries lies within each of us.  

This phrase became my anchor through the storm of divorce, guiding me toward acceptance and peace. It helped me find meaning in the toughest moments, reminding me that every setback holds a purpose—either to fuel my growth or to teach a vital lesson. Even now, I embrace these challenges as part of a greater, divine plan unfolding for my future.

I firmly believe God had a purpose in every trial I faced—because my voice was once lost in silence, overshadowed by manipulation, abuse, and pain. But today, I rise—bold, loud, and proud! Standing tall not just for myself, but for every woman who’s ever felt unheard and unseen.

I truly believe God didn’t lead me down this path to break me, but to awaken a purpose within me far greater than I ever imagined. A vital part of this journey has been learning forgiveness—the hard truth no one wants to face but everyone knows they need. Every day, I choose to forgive—myself and my ex—not because he deserves it, but because I deserve peace. True forgiveness starts with granting myself grace and letting go of the burden of resentment. Holding onto unforgiveness is exhausting, and I refuse to be a prisoner of the past. Today, I stand free, knowing that forgiving myself is the key to my healing—and I choose healing every single day.

God isn’t just teaching me forgiveness—He’s refining me. Through every trial, challenge, and hardship, He’s purifying my spirit, shaping my character, strengthening my faith, and preparing me for the purpose only He has planned. Silently, He’s removing the hidden impurities within me—selfishness, pride, rebellion, stubbornness, and ungodly attitudes—breaking me gently through life’s storms as a powerful act of His love. My ex-husband wasn’t sent to break me; instead, he was a catalyst revealing my true self. The storm cleared away all that wasn’t meant to be part of my destiny, reminding me of who I had forgotten I was. I cried, I hurt, I felt betrayed and broken—but through it all, I rose. God transformed the pain, manipulation, and lies into a fierce hunger for redemption. I had lost myself in the shadow of a marriage that no longer defined me, becoming a stranger to my own reflection—losing sight of who Dipuo truly is. Now, I am reclaiming my identity, reborn through His grace and purpose.

Through my healing journey, I’ve learned that there will always be someone who doesn’t recognize your value nor see your worth—but I refuse to be that person for myself. I choose to honour, celebrate, and love who I am. I choose to extend grace to myself and focus on my blessings rather than my challenges and struggles.

My divorce uncovered a strength I hadn’t fully recognized before. It showed me that I didn’t lose my ex-husband—I discovered who I truly am. Embracing the past doesn’t mean giving up on the future. I’m confident that this experience is a catalyst for my transformation, new beginnings and the positive changes ahead. Letting go isn’t defeat; it’s clearing space and making room for the incredible future God has destined for me.
