Just finished "Fireproof" by myself. I was absolutely overwhelmed. So many things that support everything we say here and everything we live through. Love is a choice, NOT a feeling. When we choose to love someone, it doesn't matter what they do in return. I found myself crying at so many stages of this film because I'm living it. The rejection, the failure, the frustration, the lack of respect and lack of fulfillment.
When we decide to be better men, it isn't for anyone else. It's for us. Whenever those around us come to the understanding that our transformation is real and ongoing, they better hold on. This man that I am trying to become physically, emotionally, & spiritually is so fundamentally different that it is rocking my world. I can understand why my wife doesn't get it. She is so confused by it and she cannot accept it for truth.
The greatest fact is that it doesn't matter if she gets it. Ever. This fight I'm undertaking is for me. I can live in peace every day knowing that I continue to fight the good fight. I have always been a man who was willing to fight for what I believe in. I am becoming a better man for myself. My children and my wife, if she chooses to, will have a greater presence in their lives.
I have been told numerous times on here that I have been given a gift. Thank God for it. My life will never be the same.
