As we draw near to one of my least favorite days of the year, my thoughts turn to past relationships. I remember my break up with my ex-wife and I remember the impulses that I struggled with during that time and how difficult it was to steer my life by values instead of raw emotions. I chose the values over the impulses and I now realize that I’m proud of that choice. I’m not proud of very much in my life, but I’m proud of that.
