Puppy should like the acknowledgement because from day one I fought his advice tooth and nail...
He came on my post almost daily with advice I either didn't agree with or basically didn't like yet he still came...
He never gave up on me from the beginning and today many months later, I can honestly say, I respect his advice more then any other on here (no offense to anyone at all) because he made me take a very long, hard look within myself...
He showed me how to weed out what I didn't need, draw strength from what I already had, take a stand for what I believed in, guided me on the next move each time I asked, let go when I needed to let go and draw closer to God when I had no other option. He gave me permission (so to speak) to cry, to be angry, to hurt, then he showed me how to move forward from that...
He didn't let me fall when I was so close to hitting the ground and not getting back up...He has been tough as well as kind and I thank God every night for that, for all the people I have met here and for the ones who haven't found their way here yet.
Advice just for the sake of advice - Listen very well to the ones who have been here longer. (Puppy, Coach, Wifey etc...) They do know what they are talking about.
I know personally every fiber of your being will scream they are wrong, they don't know my spouse, they don't know what they are talking about, my sitch is different (excuses we all use at one point or another) etc...
However they do know - Don't fight it like I did and waste precious time...
Time I could have used to heal a little quicker...
Time I could have used to shield my sons' a little faster...
They are here for us, to help in any way they can - Listen to them.
May All Who Seek To Take My Life Be Put To Shame And Confusion; May All Who Desire My Ruin Be Turned Back In Disgrace. ~Psalm 40:14~
