Charlie,
I posted this on your other thread, but I want you to see it here, too!
Some know you better than I, but I've come to know your heart and spirit over our time of sharing.
I know that you are aslo struggling with "What now?" as this archery stuff has been your life.
I can't spell Ecllesiastes right, but isn't that where the verse about "When I was a child....and now that I am a man...Etc?"
You know the verse.
You have wisely and selflessly chosen now to become the mentor and pass the torch. All things in His time.
Your service to us has just begun, it's just going to take on a new vision and image. God hasn't revealed it completely, but rest assured, you have much yet to offer and we'll draw it out of you!
You're loved, respected and supported by many, Brother, and all the agonizing is for naught.
Now, you've taught me things I never knew about choppin feathers and I'm looking forward to using the new knowledge. You have lots more to share with us all....
Stand back, World, Charlie got a brand new bag!
