I am sorry that I didn't understand his pain. I was too wrapped up in mine. I hate that I was that selfish.
Pam,
I want to share something that a counsellor told me a couple of days ago, when I was feeling bad about not knowing the things that I know now back when I got married (although I don't really think it would have made any difference).
She said, "When you were in kindergarten, did you know the answer to 3 x 4 - 6?"
I said, "no"
She said, "Does that mean you were stupid?"
Me: no (this really hit home b/c my S5 just started K, so I really know what a kindergartner can do)
It was such a simple analogy, but it somehow got through to me like no other message on that subject has before. I hope this helps you.
