Quote: One question for you: Have you truly let your 'old ways' go? They can sneak up on you when you least expect them.
Yes, I have truly changed my ways. I am not going to fall back into my old patterns. Through this process, I have learned that my wife and God are my #1 priorities. I have learned that even though I am in my 20s, I can be more mature and break free from my parents and continue to form a strong relationship with my wife. I do need to re-read the books and continue to read. I went from working 20 hours a week to working 50 hours a week now that I have graduated from graduate school. I will continue to read and learn as much as I can. I really am enjoying life.
I laughed this morning while I was golfing and I thought about something that you told me Frank. I said that I'll quit golfing just to make my wife happy. You told me, that I can't do that because that is something that I enjoy and that I would be miserable if I didn't do things to make myself happy. You are right, I can't give up golf. My wife takes priority over my golfing. I can now enjoy a round of golf and not have extraneous things on my mind to frustrate me.
I'll need to read your thread to see where you are. I am praying that your family is able to be happy again.
God Bless
