Choices

I've always believed, and experience has born out, that the true test of character is not how one behaves when life is easy, but when life is hard, when choices have to be made, choices that pit personal comfort and security against what is best for others.

Bob and I have been delighted and honored with the presence of our co-blogger, Brigid. She also blogs at her own blog, Home On The Range, which is very much worth your time on a regular basis. I recommend her most recent post which is not only intensely personal, but compelling and revealing of the kind of character of which I speak. It also proves that happy endings are still possible, even if they take a long time.

Thanks. I've done my own share of screw ups as an adult and hurt those I loved and respected. I try and move on, say I'm sorry, and look forward, that's all any of us can do.

Thank you for seeing the good in me. It's a pleasure to be here.
