my final parting thoughts to you would be this. guide him, nurture him as you would your own children, but with the due deference and respect owed, unlike with your children. especially with his troubled past making this part more necessary than otherwise, men are not monoliths of sheer will, incapable of feeling or being worn down by the world. in fact, that is a huge issue with why so many men check out today. because over time, a silent serpentine mi d virus has convinced society at large that this is how men should be. this is not so. yes, he is the leader of the household, but even leaders are human, and fal prey to the troubles of the world. it your job as mother and wife and nurturer to help him back onto his feet, so that he may lead again. you are supposed to be his respite, and wisdom in the domestic house.  just remember what i said about helping him to find his purpose. you will be amazed at the transformation once he does, and especially if you were instrumental in it all.
