An Old Dog

Okay, it happened. Everyone told me it would. Tracy ditched out on me, the house, and all our bills. I am left responsible for everything. The amazing thing is....he states that I ran him off. That I am sick and need help. My question is this....who is still here being resposible towards the obligations we made to our debts? Who has saught help for an illness and has admitted to needing it ? Who is the one that is home every night and not sitting in a bar drinking away responsiblity and oligation? Who is mature enough to admit faults and strong enough to work through them with someone they love? And he says I am the sick one. The only thing I am sick in is the fact that I WAS too sick to see the truth of who he is. I was too sick to see the truth, but once I got well it became clear as day.

Yes, I loved Tracy. Not the real Tracy mind you, the Tracy that I had created in my mind. I feel sorry for the real Tracy. He had someone who loved him unconditionally and he threw it away. Thank you, Tracy. Thank you for throwing me into the air and setting me free.

There is a saying:

You can teach a dog new tricks,
but you can't teach a dog to be a man.
