Where were his friends and family? Were they urging him to not remarry when his own life was upside down? Or were they derelict in not speaking up and guiding him?

With more than half of marriages going down in flames why do so many still think still something that must be accomplished.

If you were an instructor at TK, would you seriously sign off an initial newhire for the LOE if you felt there was a 50-60% chance they would fail it??

Of course you wouldn’t!
