Yes it is much work to write these thoughts out. When bluegreenboat ask for more about my relationship with my wife I had nothing written as of yet. I was at a lost for words. Actually my relationship with my wife is what I am struggling with at this very moment. Writing, for me, is very therapeutic. It helps formulate ideas and matures thoughts.

Thank you all for being such a well receiving audience.
