Holy crap! I just came away with another new insight. Those were some amazing replies... labug and 25years offer a perspective a man could never have.
I couldn't agree more. Thank you ALL, for your perspecitve and insight.
I took a moment and tried something that I thought I would appreciate from someone else, a simple gesture that didn't require any response. I sent W a text picture of some flowers we picked and put in a vase a while ago. Along with it I sent a text saying....
"April showers bring May flowers. I hope you enjoy your day, W. The weather is going to be beautiful".
I hope to have some more opertunities to practice my validation and communication a little more. The part 25 said about the LBS needing to take the first step, and the next step, really rang true. I think I don't fully realize how much I HAVE TO WORK to accomplish this. It's not a two way street at the moment. I have to do the driving......I'm going to start practicing right now!
