Reading bshrader's honest and humble introspection, and our DBR community's gracious acceptance, remind me of the story of the Prodigal Son [from the Gospel of Luke]. A man's younger son squanders his inheritance and returns penniless to his father, asking to be accepted as a servant. No way -- in true DBR spirit, the father welcomes his son, forgives his past transgressions and puts on a celebratory feast in his son's honor.
Now, bshrader, I just hope that sporks will suffice in lieu of a celebratory feast!
In seriousness, I applaud our supporting our growth and authenticity, rather than our egos.
Go Duke!
“I love it. Coach, when we came here, we had a three-hour meeting about the core values. If you really represent the core values, it means diving on the floor, sacrificing your body for your teammates, no matter how much you’re up by or how much you’re down by, always playing hard.” -- Zion
