Thank you for all of your wisdom and guidance through this challenging time. I
wish all men could be fortunate enough to have mentors (A friends) like you. The world would be a much better place.
Here are my thoughts/metaphor:
Life is like a 15 round heavyweight boxing match. I'd say I was in the 9th round when I initially called
you. I had just taken a heavy head shot (marital issues/self doubt/bouts of depression) and was down for the count.......and the bell had just rang. I wasn't sure I could get up to meet the bell for the 10th. Fortunately, I staggered to my feet (made the call) and got to my corner. Damn good thing I had a good "corner man" (Horsmon).
You worked with
me and got me seeing clearly (sound advice/compassion/mentoring). I feel like I can not only meet the bell for the 10th round but come out with my head held high (empowered/inspired) and ready to give it all I have.
This will go the distance. Win or lose, I know that I'll have given it everything I had. I'm glad I've got you in my corner for the next five
rounds. Time will tell how it turns out, but either way, I know I'm a winner!
Take care and lots of love to you brother,

P.S. Hopefully, my vision will be good enough
to duck when I see the big right hook coming.........
