Stand By Your Man

Remember that old Patsy Cline song "Stand By Your Man"? If not, here are the lyrics to the chorus:

Stand by your man
Give him two arms to cling to
And somethin' warm to come to
When nights are cold and lonely

Stand by your man
And show the world you love him
Keep givin' all the love you can
Stand by your man

Bill and I have always been super supportive of each other. If one of us is sad or upset, the other is as well. As a matter of fact, when we were first married, I felt treated very unfairly at a little gift store. I don't remember all of the details now, but when I got home, I was visibly upset. Bill was upset, too. He was so upset that he called the store and asked to speak to a manager about the situation. We laugh about that now. How silly to be that upset about something that happened at a store! Newlyweds....*sigh*
Anyway, ever since Bill has become a principal, I have found myself to be extremely sensitive. His job is not easy. Not easy at all. When I hear of certain situations, my blood boils. My blood boils so much that I find it extremely hard to find the Godly things to think and do.
Does anyone else feel this way? Does anyone else have a spouse that is continually in the public eye; the critical, accusatory public eye? It drives me bonkers!
I am so proud of Bill, and I think that any school is extremely fortunate to have him on its staff, in a leadership position. So, when I get upset, I just have to remember that it's my job to

" Stand by your man
And show the world you love him
Keep givin' all the love you can
Stand by your man"
