What's really helped me in the forgiveness department is making a list (Pros and Cons) of Smokey. Looking at Smokey in a really fair, balanced way. It's takes a lot of the sting outta it.
For Example:
Pros
Good-Looking Funny Smart about certain things (science, wildlife) High I.Q. Playful
Cons
Ridiculously short legs/outta proportion with his body Less-than-well-endowed...much less (And, NOW I HAVE SOMETHING TO COMPARE IT TO!!!) Sophomoric--still thinks passing the gas is funny Kinda stupid about the important things in life...misses the big picture Drug-addled Ego-maniacal and grossly insecure all at the same time... Immature
This really helps me to see the WHOLE picture and accept that this man was human...not a super-evil villain or a super-awesome/love of my life...JUST HUMAN. Period.
