“Every time I came home it was this wonderful home coming, but I knew it couldnt last, I was throwing houses and gifts and cars at a problem that could only be solved with me being home more, I just couldnt do that. She used to complain every once in a while that the new house felt cold with out me but home was an increasingly difficult concept for me, it was like I was living two lives that was worlds apart.
