This World lost an amazing man only a few hours ago now.A man who was larger than life yet he hated himself so...A prideful man yet humble. He always worked hard and loved even harder. I've loved his oldest son for over 20 years now. They are very much alike both in how they love and in life. Both men sacrifice themselves in every way no matter how painful it may be to help others see the good in themselves that neither can see in themselves. Driven in life by a need to gain the approval of his dad that he can never see he already has always had. They butted heads like Rams until the son at long last backed away having grown weiry of such a losing battle that never seemed to give way.He backed away to live in torment over all the things he never got to say. In truth the World lost two great men today...one in death...the other lost in pain... My heart is very heavy today how could neither of them have known that everything they did was for one other... they were all each other truly had. At 3am today I lost both of the greatest men I've ever known. I pray one will come back to me someday though my heart knows he never will.
