By the time a marriage dissolves, when love is replaced by fighting, slammed doors, and name-calling, divorce may be the only way out of the seemingly endless dark tunnel. If divorce is a relief from an unhappy situation, why do we fear it? We often hear about ugly divorce hearings, angry custody battles, and months of arguing, but what if divorce doesn’t have to be this way?

When divorce is on the horizon, we need a way out that doesn’t destroy the lives and mental well-being of both the couple and their children. Even in divorce, there can still be love, respect, understanding, and of course, compassion.

Absolutely recommended!

Talking about divorce is a topic that many of us fear, and I include myself among them.However, reading this book helped me see this important subject from another perspective, one that is becoming more and more common in today’s society.The author shows that it is not the end of the world and that it doesn’t have to end as a tragedy. Instead, through this book, she provides tools and new perspectives to go through it in the best possible way, both for the couple and for the families in general.Highly recommended and very interesting, as it offers hope, clarity, and emotional strength during difficult times.

Inspiring and thought-provoking read.

It’s very common to hear that couples who divorce do so on bad terms, through exhausting and tedious processes or with difficulties in reaching agreement between the people. The author of this book attacks this way of seeing things and shows us that through love and patience, better results can be achieved than through endless warfare.It should be noted that the author herself went through a divorce, so every piece of advice she gives us comes from a place of experience and helpfulness.I found it to be an inspiring, thought-provoking, and daring read, as it changes the way we see things. It’s possible to maintain peace after love ends, and she came to prove it!

The idea is to maintain a healthy and fluid communication among the two sides to reach a fair resolution. It’s important to strike a balance between what one desires with the necessities of the children.It’s also necessary to take care of your mental health, to be respectful and compassionate during this hard, sometimes long, process.

A refreshing and hopeful perspective on one of life’s hardest transitions

Divorce is talked about so much in the language of wars, resentment, and broken families. What makes Discovering Diamonds so potent is that Sarene B. Arias demonstrates to us that there is another way. With honesty and empathy, she repositions divorce not as the end of love, but as a chance to vow to respect, dignity, and compassion—even if a marriage itself is not survivable.Most striking to me was Arias's vulnerability. She's writing on the cusp of her own divorce and so doesn't lecture from a distance—she's talking from experience. That renders her insights both practical and personally relatable. Her writing reads less like a self-help guru doling out advice and more like a close friend who understands the pain but also the possibility of healing.This book offers us a priceless gift: hope. It shows us that even in endings, we can opt for a kinder path—one that preserves both partners' sanity and, most importantly, the children caught in the middle.If you or someone you love is experiencing divorce, Discovering Diamonds is proof that kindness can light up even the darkest of nights.
