I guess it would have been best if I had not brought any of this up at all.
vision63 thanks for your very moving insight into your life. It took courage to put that on here.
I'll admit I've never known anyone that has had to live in the "system". It seems like a world away from
the world I've lived in and so I apologize for any feelings I may have hurt or toes I may have stepped on.
The world I grew up was far from being affluent that's for sure. Having worked with my hands as a skilled
laborer I've never was without work during my entire career. I better let this one go, I've obviously said
too much already.
What you said was genuine, honest and open. Everything you said were legitimate expressions of thought. We already know that you are a good good person. A thoughtful loving family man. We all have great respect and love for you. Like Hal said, what you said is what we want to hear. Honesty. Dialog.
You are two of my most favorite posters here and I'm glad to hear any opinions you care to express, even ones that I don't agree with. I think of both of you as caring and compassionate people and I'm glad to "know" both of you.
Vision, I'd like to add my voice to the thank yous for your story. I still remember when you posted about your Mom a year or two ago, and how she impressed me then as a very special person. As are you.
Well you know how I feel about you. I got your back as your fan.
