What do you do when you know that you have no business being a father? When you know that you will bring pain to those you love? When you are broken and have no idea when you’ll be restored?
I have a child that will be born soon. How did I manage to be such a miserable failure? How could I be so unprepared? How could I get so comfortable with everyday life that I am actually surprised by these events?
My wife hates some of the things I say and feel and do. And so do I. I despise the inner darkness. I despise her inner darkness. Most Americans live their whole lives not knowing how dark they truly are on the inside. People who have been abused, raped, rejected, abandoned, ignored, and forgotten.
We are all damaged goods. We are all trying to make the best of it. And when it comes time to face the truth, we are all unprepared to face the evil things we do and have already done.
