Alrighty guys, so finally here I am with the long awaited special request Blog... I was asked to do a post on Forgiveness, and to get a little more specific I was asked whether or not one should try to rebuild the relationship after something happens. I'm going to try and answer that as best as I can, so please bear with me. And this is one topic where I really would love you guys to comment and give me your thoughts :)
This is quite an extensive topic, and truthfully I'm not sure I even scratch the surface of it, nor do I think that I got all this down pat. But I hope that this will make sense.
One last thing, this is more than likely going to be at least two posts... maybe even three long.
Now, first I feel like I have to explain some other things first before I answer that specific question up there.

A quick update
Hey Everyone! I hope you're all doing well :) Well it's almost here, summer is just around the corner and school is finishing up it's last days for most of you. I can't wait to hear about all your summer plans and all the trips I know many of you will be making!
I haven't heard back yet from the Captain of the Nina and Pinta, so my whole month of sailing is still hanging in the air.
Fire class is going well, we're doing an average of two or three chapters a night! So we currently only have about 2wks or so of class left, and only that long because we have to schedule to use the burn tower to do our practical skills. Keep me in prayer that I'll do well on all the upcoming testing.
Sadly to say I'm afraid I don't have a story for you this week, but fear not! I have a topic in mind and am currently working on it... this particular topic is taking a lot of research and more studying then my normal "off the top of my head" subject. So please stay patient, and wait for the good things to come ;)
I hope you all have an amazing weekend!
God Bless,
Ryan

The Broken Tools
~
There once was a young man that lived in a small home... the man was not the best housekeeper, and as a result there often was some sort of small repair that needed to get done, but he usually never bothered with it. "I'll get to it eventually," he would think. "It's just a small repair, and I need to look up how to fix it properly anyway."
Well this went on for quite a while. Eventually repair, upon repair built up and around his home.. and eventually those little things became big things. But he continued to ignore them.
One day one of his friends came over and to chat for a bit, as they chatted the friend mentioned some small repairs that needed to get done around his house. "Oh! Let me help you with that friend," said the man.
