You strike me as a nice, decent sort of regular guy who loves his family and kids and you're just hurting a lot. Everything is raw so every unmet expectation or snub hurts...like having 3rd degree burns...even the wind blowing causes pain. I know how that is.

That's why we have to work on ourselves. We need to heal up and get our skin a little tougher. It doesn't mean there's anything wrong with being sensitive about things that are supposed to hurt...it just means we have to learn how to "play with a little pain" as my coaches used to say.

It's ok to hurt. It's supposed to hurt. We just can't let it keep us from job #1.
