I don’t think I’ve always been on the road of benevolence. I was being pruned to take over for my grandfather, which is why he is so upset. He was ready to pass the torch and I backed out, sensing I didn’t really want to go that far. I swear I heard a voice tell me to backup, not to travel the road my grandfather laid out before me. I was not that kind of person. At first, I thought I was imagining it but it planted a seed and I couldn’t shake it. I called Ryan out of the blue, it shocked him. He told me not to do it. In fact, he said the same thing I heard the voice say. He said it was a perilous round riddled with death and violence. If I took that step there would be no turning back. In the end I ran for my life and it was the end of my marriage as well. Of course, she enjoyed the life my grandparents afforded us, and for me to turn my back on them was insane. I married a woman my grandfather picked out of me and it was always a troubled marriage. As I look back over it all I can see the horror more clearly. I was in the den of hell and money did not comfort me. I took my children and made me exit. I missed my parents anyway, and my brothers and sister. I’ve never been happier than I am with my life now.
I know realize I am far more comforted and at peace in my soul where I am now and I know I made the right decision. I am benevolent at heart and this I now know. My most admired person I is my father. I love you pop!!!
