How do you define divorce?

Last week, we asked our followers on Twitter and Facebook to finish this sentence: "Divorce is..." The response was predictably vast and varied.

Some cited divorce's difficulties ("Divorce is hard on the body mind and soul"), others found splits liberating ("Divorce is a call to re-awaken your life"), still others lamented divorce's prevalence ("Divorce is too common. When you make things the norm...it is no surprise when they become the norm") and ubiquity in pop culture ("Divorce is..."preventable!!! Take the time to know who you are marrying @Kimkardashian").

Check out the responses in the slideshow below and add your own definition in the comments.

Different for everyone. Devastating for most. A turning point for some.

"Divorce is the beginning of the journey towards figuring out who you are and what you really want".
