She blames me for it all, and she's right. I screwed up bad. I do hope for the best. She walked away because of my lack of compassion...that pretty much sums up all of the mistakes and bad decisions that I made. I'm working a lot on compassion...I'm learning that it's the lifeblood of families, and encompasses so much!
That's good stuff. Thanks. He says "true compassion is not just an emotional response but a firm committment founded on reason. Therefore, a truly compassionate attitude towards others does not change even if they behave negatively. It is within your power, given patience and time, to develop this kind of compassion."
I'm still kind of numb from the bad phone call on April 30th. No, guess I really haven't prepared for the worst yet. Don't even want to think about it. I know the reality, and graveness, of the situation...I guess I'm just not ready to be there. Sorry!
