I screwed many things up over the course of our relationship, did many things just out-and-out wrong, learned many things, and grew up some.

(I still screw things up today, as I have done most days since '95. But, that's life, and y'all know I love living honestly about that.)

I also have a mother and had a father who loved me unconditionally. ... My story is a fairy tale compared to so many others from then.
