No one likes getting done, admittedly. Mind you... it depends how they were 'done'. I'm medium rare as far as how I like my steak done. 😉🥩
I am a firm believer in turning something very bad into something very good, but for that you gotta get tough, mean and stubborn first, to survive the initial period, then to begin improving oneself.
Getting done can in fact be a blessing, an opportunity that otherwise would have been missed, for often we only do the things we are forced to do.
Thank you for being there Billy, hope you are well
