Bob,

Firstly I applaud you for telling your story so eloquently and honestly. I have had some issues with neglect so I can identify somewhat with your childhood (but only on a small scale in comparison to what you endured)

You have come so far PP and we are all so very proud of you as I am sure you are of yourself..
You are a brave, loving, decent man who is now on the right path.

Well done to you mate....well bloody done! xx

Bob,

After reading your story a few times, I realized that you found the only thing stronger than all the evil in your life - true love.

Thank you for sharing, and I know you'll be all right.

Sad Sally

"Bad things happen to good people and good people do bad things...but that doesn't make you bad forever" Humans can be unforgiving sometimes, but God's love is unconditional. You are working through this right now, but there is a light at the end in this tunnel. Try to see the glimpse now and keep heading towrds the light. You have a bright future ahead.

Hey PC....Brit...has some very wise words here.....and I would like to add some words that really helped me....
"Be the Future, that You Want the Future to Be", in other words, if you seek peace, love, contentment in your life.....then BE those things in your own life. Remember in quantum physics, Like attracts Like....it may not always come in the form that we are expecting, nor at the speed that we would prefer....but it does come! Be patient...you will get there!

Thumbs up Wow

That's all I can say(thought I posted here already) but, you have been thru too much for one person, and came out so sweet, and you are sober, yay!!! Stay that way & you'll be surprised at the things that can happen, the strength you will gain.

Thanks for sharing that w/ us!

Much love,

MA
