Lesson of The Day

Sometimes I remember when
I was too hard headed
to be reasonable.

It cost me my marriage,
and robbed me of that
opportunity to be a man.

It's hard to be a good
father when your wife
sends you on your way.

I should have kissed her,
not criticized her, that's
the lesson of the day.

We all have lessons to learn James..
and it's never too late for us to learn either.

it's a good lesson...sad that it took what it did for you to learn it though, but at least you did, some men never do

Thank you scorpio, Enchantress and Sea...
Looking back I wish that I was not so hard headed and so cold hearted...I missed a beautiful opportunity...but I have learned some lessons...James

to me, it take an honorable man, or any person for that matter, to admit they're wrongs, which is on the right road to recovery...this is a perfect example of finding answers, in self exploration...enjoyed and hugs to ya

Some lessons take longer than others to learn!

Yes, kisses ~ not criticism ~ bring rosebuds into bloom!
