YOU DID what was best for THEM! That to me is never surrendering your LOVE, passion, and above all, decency.<br /><br />Your choices were extremely HARD ones, but you made the best ones for your family AND for yourself.<br /><br />YOUR sacrifices are NEVER ENDING.... That is what I "spy" from this post.<br /><br /><br />Love,<br /><br />BroMichael Di Gesuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17047267262428143113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9073226012013539726.post-49157906923430235652012-06-13T13:31:05.965+02:002012-06-13T13:31:05.965+02:00That's an amazing story.

But that isn't always a surrender - it's a choice that makes the most sense at the time. Sounds like you're in a good place with a good future ahead! Awesome!
