The journey to forgiveness begin with goodbye...SamuelI don't deserve love or happiness. The last few years of my life have been full of enough guilt and hurt for me to deny it. The pain in my body matches the pain in my heart and it's my penance for the role I played in the loss of my mentor, a man who would still be here if it weren't for my failure. If I can't even forgive myself, how can those who lost him forgive me? The guilt that drives me to help others is my only companion - even when it's to my detriment. That is until I see him. He's as broken as I am and wants to move on, but he can't do it alone. I know I'm not good enough for him, but maybe he's the key to my absolution.RoryI spent the last two years enveloped in pain while I tried to find the man I'd loved and lost. My need to say my last goodbye and find closure keeps me driving forward, despite the pain and loneliness. If I can't find what I lost, how can I ever move forward?After being blocked, barred, and shut down at every turn, I'm ready to give up. That is until I run into him. We're both broken, but maybe by helping me, he can help himself, too. He thinks he's not good enough for me, but I found love once and lost it, so maybe we can find it - together.
