"Think back on a time when you experienced great difficulty. How did you get through it?"
Arwen's death.
Having to raise three children on his own.
He he failed, turning to the sweet release of alcohol.
For sometime he failed. He let his kids down. he let himself down. He lies his death wife down. But then he got through it in the end. His children got him through it.
Archibald struggles for a moment, trying to find the right words. "My wife... her death would have to me one of the toughest experiences in my life, to this date. To lose someone on a day which was supposed to be the celebration of a new life... It was heart breaking. My heart did break. I couldn't save her, no one could..." His voice trails off as he remembers the blood that soaked the sheets, the dyed his hands.
"I loved my wife with my whole heart... Losing her... Loosing her and the way I handled it will always be something that I regret." Maybe he was about to make a mistake, being so brutally honest. But in the end the district deserved to know his story, therefore it was better coming from his lips and not some tabloid they read in the newspaper. "For too long I was lost, I drank away my sorrows, until I felt numb. It was the darkest time in my life and I turned to booze to try and take away the pain. I neglected my family. I forgot who I was."
He pauses, clearing his throat nervously. "But I picked myself back up. For over two years I have not had one drop of alcohol. I have started progress towards funding a school so that my children can get the best possible education. Every day I work to atone for my mistakes. I am not proud of my past behaviour... But people change and I truly believe that I have turned over a new leaf. That with the strength and support of my three gorgeous children have made me a better man."
