   I am blessed with many friendships. Many of which have spanned 3 and 4 decades now. You, of course, would be one of those. But, there are only a few people I can say I “truly” trust. You are and have been one of those friends for years whether you knew it or not.

   True, I was there to see you at your worst.Someone going through what you went through could have easily thrown a pity party and continue to “invite” people to it. You however, positioned yourself to come through this thing a better person and have earned the respect of a lot of folks in doing so. You have proven yourself a “self made” man and have shown “true” honor in your character. Because of this, you were able to begin to rebuild a better future for yourself. Thanks for the kind words, but the kudos go to you my friend.

   Well written, but I did not do it all by myself and had plenty of good examples on hand in my attempt to emulate. And I did have my moments of self-pity. I’m just a man who experienced things that a lot of other men have experienced. I don’t feel I did anything unique. I did have to dig deep to rebuild myself as a person. That process continues. I admire you greatly for what you’ve endured and overcome. You are a true friend.
