I'm tapping out...

[Cowboy2Step]

I always laughed when I saw the "I am retiring" notices, but after much contemplation I am hanging it up, have had a lot of fun, but through out all these experiences I realized I will not be fulfilled by any experience...I am devoting my time and efforts to being a better husband and when you give more you tend to get more. I have noticed the more I hobbied the more I was pulled away from my spiritual upbringing. I allowed the devil to create a strong hold in my life and I am breaking free of those bonds, and in order to do so, I must recommit myself to my wife and to make the Lord Jesus Christ my reason for existence rather than my own personal selfish desires. Proverbs 26:11 Says " As a dog eats its own vomit, so a fool repeats his foolishness." I am no longer going to return to my foolishness. May God bless each and every one of you.

Cowboy2Step,

Sounds like you have been thinking about this for some time. You did not make this decision lightly and it sounds like your path is heading towards a different direction.

I wish you all the best and thank U so much for your blessing. May God be with U as well.

Take care.
