You Always Hurt The Ones You Love

God showed me today that I can be very insensitive and I frequently speak without thinking about how my words may be conceived by those around me when I took the time to think about how my words sounded.  I recently had surgery on my right wrist for carpal tunnel syndrome, so my doctor's orders were to rest and recover.  I've been doing my best to stick to that, but there are times I just want to help out and kind of forget that I'm not supposed to be not doing too much.  I then admitted to some friends that I've overdone it a few times since my surgery, but I didn't think about how that might make my lovely wife look.  It came across as if she were making me do too much, but really it's my insistence that I take on everything I normally would just to prove I still can and I'm not an invalid.  I really am blessed with a very wonderful, loving, caring, thoughtful wife, who insists I rest and not do too much.  My stubborness usually gets in the way of this and ends up making things worse.  I think it's about time I really listened to her and to my doctor because I'm starting to realize why I've been told to rest and recover.  It really hurts!  My wrist needs time to heal and get better and I need to show my wife how much I really appreciate her and how well she takes care of me!  Who else would be so awesome as to let me get Pizza Hut for dinner the night of my surgery, and then Godfather's pizza buffet the next day for lunch?  Thank you honey for being so wonderful and really taking care of me!  I'm sorry I've been a horrible patient!
