The only time this happened to me was SEVERAL years ago when I was dating a fine......fine young, ebony princess! Her parents didn't approve of me 'cause of my skin tone! So, I wasn't welcome in their house!!
...Pffffffffft, like THAT really devastated me??? At that time in my life..... it wasn't a HOUSE that I wanted to "get into", if ya'll catch my drift??
...fork in the road in your life? And did you go around it? Run it over? What, if anything, did you do about it??
Hey you Redheaded wonder!!
Hmmmm?
I guess my biggest "fork in the road",was 4 or 5 years ago when I got divorced?! ....I went a little "wild" if ya know what I mean?? Not so much over the divorce,"per-se",but for the fact that I've never been alone before. Ever since I can remember, I've either had a girlfriend or wife to keep me company and outta trouble,so to speak!! So,when I didn't have that anymore...I over indulged on the partyin' a little too much? In other words..I went on a "liquid diet",for several months,I'd stay out all hours of the night,sometimes I wouldn't come home to my "cave",at all!! Btw...that's what I called my place after she took everything...all she left me was an echo. Anyway, I swore off women for years after that....I was thru with'em! I used to tell my buddys I was gonna look for me a "good man" There's an oxymoron,right!! ...Just kiddin' guys!!
Anywho...to make a long story short....I joined the Great White Shark Society, and....."GOT A GRIP"!! Got my life back on track and here I am with you nice folks!! Like I said...that was 4 or 5 years ago..I've adapted & overcame! The plus side...I lost almost 75lbs.!!!! I've been working out and running like the friggin' wind!! I'm planning on going back in the Army..yet again for the third time!
So, the ol' proverbial "fork in the road", didn't kill me,so...I guess it made me stronger......Hooorah?!?!
