Oh hey it’s you! \u00a0 Hey honey! \u00a0 Look who’s back! \u00a0 Man, we’ve missed you.<\/p>\n

How have you been? \u00a0 We’re okay…we’ve been thinking good things for you the whole time you’ve been away. \u00a0 Looks like life’s had it’s way with you. \u00a0 Ouch. \u00a0 Where’d you pick up those scrapes?<\/p>\n

It was hard when you first left. We were so there with you when you had your big shock. \u00a0 It was hard to watch you get angry like that. \u00a0 You hurt a lot of people you know. \u00a0 I mean we knew we’d be safe, y’know we’ve known each other a long time, but it was really hard to watch you go through that. \u00a0 We didn’t take personally all those things you said about us. \u00a0 You were angry, acting rash. \u00a0 And now look at you…tired, hungry, hurt and you look like you’re out of money too.<\/p>\n

But look, it’s good to have you back. \u00a0 We really have missed you. \u00a0 Things haven’t been the same since you’ve been gone. \u00a0 I knew if we kept the candles burning for you, you’d come back.<\/p>\n

Come on in and take a load off. \u00a0 Have something to eat. \u00a0 Take a few days and then we can help you think about how to make things right again. \u00a0 Lots of people are gunning for you right now. \u00a0 You look like you could use a few friends.<\/p>\n

I believe you when you say you want to change. \u00a0 It’s not going to be easy, but if you need our help, we’ll give you a hand. \u00a0 Who knows? \u00a0 Maybe the tables will be turned someday!<\/p>\n

Alright, take it easy now…you’ve had a long trek to get here. \u00a0 Go slow. \u00a0 Get some rest. \u00a0 We’ll talk more in the morning<\/p>\n

Man…it’s good to see you again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
