Yes, I do have a great reason....but it's also a burden, knowing that in my lowest times of depression that she is affected. That she's affected by every decision I make...and that my shortfalls will impact her in the long run. As much as I love her and dedicated to doing the best job that I can for her, it's draining to have such pressure...
