Know we are totally behind you, and will do all we can to support you. That is what this church and the gospel is about - I admire your fight to do what is right. We love and support you...
Best of luck - see you soon.
Good luck with your goals and thanks for sharing your experience.
Signed,
A former ultra-marathon cyclist.
No we don't, but the Savior gives it to us anyway. That's why we should be eternally grateful.
This is a most intriquing and inspiring story. Life is hard, but David is facing up to his challenges. Don't ever give up, David!
Wow, my opinion of your opinions just went down a few notches, quite a few. ". . . rich blessings are in store if you don't get tattoos."
What a dumb thing to say. While extreme, I kinda like David's tattoo, if he want's to try to get rid of it, that's cool (of course) none of me business. But if he kept it that's cool, too. None of my business, either.
Dave seems like you are a stud, with or with out the tat. I think it is the religion, judging from some of these comments, that I would remove first. But, of course, none of my business.
It is the drug use that was the problem, and it sounds like you are well on the way to controlling that.
Like someone else said, there is a book here somewhere.
What an ignorant comment. I guess you are casting the "first stone."
Best of luck with your recovery, stay close to the church and stay fit. I got clean over 20 years ago and found the Church a few years ago. It will get better.
David: Good luck! I'll be watching for your name in the news. You're awesome. (At least you picked a cool tatoo for your face.)
"You're not gonna like what I've done to my face..."
Ya think?
I'm sure another girl will, though - so no worries.
That's true. nether was invading Iraq part of the plan but we did it any way. Now its left up to Obama to get us out and clean things up.
about the tats. no big deal ether way.
You got the tatoo to be strong by hiding your pain and weakness.
Do you not see now that all you did was give in to weakness? And every day now your weakness is on your face.
Truly, best wishes getting your life straightened out. Can you do it? Only if you'll do your best and allow God to help you.
Good luck.
just time and miles, time and miles
