Today is the day

Today is the day I use this blog to become a better man..

A complete man.  A family man... good husband... good father.

A man who respects others and is respected.

Why?

Well it seems ever since my father died... I have been lost... I don't seem like myself...

I have done some things that well I'm not real proud of ... Said things I shouldn't have... thought things I shouldn't have... and done things I shouldn't have.

So let me start with this poem that I created... which sometimes helps sometimes doesn't

Dear God,

I have sinned in thought, word, and deed,
With your help, let me set those sins afire,
stare deeply into their ashes...
and emerge from them a better man.

Amen
