When it gets bad and I do want to give up I try and remember a couple things. That whether she is here or not in a couple years I will always have to face myself in the mirror. If I do everything I can then at the end no matter what, I can continue forward with my life with no regrets.
I am going to tell you a secret. I know a lot of folks who have been here a long time and still don't get that.
Forgiveness. I think I forgave the former Mrs IMP about 47 times. But if I didn't do it the first time, I would have never done it for good.
My early posts are all gone. The system was purge last Fall. You really don't get to read my story. And even before, the real juicy stuff was gone. People have asked me to put it up, but I have tried a couple times and it just bored me to tears because to put it all out there would take too much bandwidth.
And thank you for the compliment, i.e. a no BS guy. Get me in trouble once in a while, but hey you have to break a few eggs to make an omelette.
