From my Dad!

Hayley, maybe you could forward this to those involved on my behalf.
____________________________________________________________

To my true friends,

This email is a hard line to draw. saying thank you is easy, admitting I need this kind of attention is not.

I have a bad habit of not sharing my faults, not even with myself. Although I know they show to everyone else.

In recent months, the realization that I could no longer continue my life by myself became real.

It was like a nagging pain that became noticeably worse every day. actually, every hour of every day.

Maybe everyone reaches this infamous place in their life. however, for me, it was unfamiliar territory.

In physics, nothing can stop the law of gravity.

As Emmylou so eloquently sang, "you keep on falling because their is no bottom". I was so there.

A place where every aspect of life was in a freefall. It is a terrifying place to find yourself. Still is.

That's when Hayley called suggesting a fast. Bless her heart. I didn't even tell her what was going on in my life.

So I thank her, and each of you for your thoughtful act on my behalf.

I love you all. I may be out of site and mind, but i think of you all more than you can imagine.

Right now I am truly grateful for your love and faith. Words cannot describe.

What a great gospel plan we have been given here on Earth.

Again, thank you, thank you, thank you.

Love,


Mathew
