October 11, 2016Nuggets of Wisdom
Dear Dr. Laura,
Several years ago, I listened to you daily. I loved your style, appreciated your candor and took many things to heart. At the time in my life, I was going through a divorce. I felt as if I was drowning. No one on the outside would ever have known the struggles I let surface when alone at night.
The fears, the wonder of how long I could do this and the plain, enduring fatigue of the demands on me. I grew up as an athlete. I was disciplined and I learned young that you pushed through whatever you had to push through. The nuggets of wisdom I gleaned from listening to you were never so blatant that I knew it was happening. Instead, it slowly crept into my parenting, my relationship with a demanding mother and my career. You supported me when I didn't even know I would need it.
I just wanted you to know, there are so many times you say something and I have an epiphany. I'm thankful to know...when I did feel alone and doubtful, you had given me strength to be what I needed to be. Even when I didn't know where it came from.
Thank you,
Ken
