UNFAITHFULNESS

It has happened. After nearly 30 years of being faithful to the wife, I gave in. Needless to say, she is beyond upset and may never forgive me. I have accepted responsibility for my actions but the pain that I have caused is massive. Our lives will probably never be the same.

It was an allure that could not be resisted. There before me was the temptation - dressed in ocean blue with an accent of green. So beautiful, so confident, so seductive.

Despite the hurt that I have caused, I will not sway from my new love.

I have become a Seattle Seahawks fan.

Go 'hawks!


Readers, enjoy your day.
