Divorced in Life, Co-Parents for Eternity.
Some people believe that when we die, we’ll be reunited with our family and loved ones, which sounds heartwarming at first. Picture it: you’ve done the whole marriage-and-kids thing, then life moves on, you and your spouse drift apart, and divorce eventually lets you each go your separate ways. Years later, the curtain closes, you step into the afterlife, and—finally—some peace and quiet.
You’ve both made it to your own corners of celestial serenity, blissfully apart, and things are feeling pretty ideal. At last, you’re free from arguments over whose family makes the best holiday stuffing or whose turn it is to do carpool. In short, you’re both completely content to stay eternally separate.
Then, just as you’re both settling into your corners of paradise, a familiar voice echoes through the clouds: “Mom? Dad?” You look up, and there are the kids, floating towards you with big, angelic smiles. Turns out family reunions are a cosmic package deal, and “till death do us part” really just meant “see you on the other side.”
So here you are, not only back together but facing eternity as a “co-parenting” duo. No custody schedule, no breaks—just all the time in the universe to debate who was really the “cooler parent.” Suddenly, eternity is looking a lot less like serene solitude and a lot more like a shared eternal family holiday!
