Have you ever wished you could turn aback the clock and relive a particular event or relationship issue? I believe that everyone does deserve a second chance in life. Although often times these second chances are not given. A second chance is like a gift for people who make mistakes. It allows them to learn from their first mistake and do a better job the second time around.
             In the beginning of The Testament, Nate O'Riely had many problems. He was in rehab due to his alcoholism and drug addictions. Nate's first second chance was when Troy Phelans's lawyer, Josh Stafford gave Nate the responsibility to find Troy's illegitimate daughter in Brazil and give her the news that she had inherited a fortune. Nate accepted this mission and was hoping this would change him for the better. On his way to Brazil he had difficulties with alcohol. which slowed him down but he succeeded by reaching Rachel and delivering the important message. When Nate got dengue, he came very close to death. Fortunately, he was given yet another second chance at life and was able to recover. Nate later tried to make things right with his family and children.
             Just like Nate received many second chances, so did my dad. My parent's marriage came to an end when my dad's behavior became similar to how Nate acted. He drank far too much and used drugs. My mom put up with this for many years. For example, my dad was not there when I was born. He was in a bar and my mom gave him another second chance. After all the drugs and alcohol took over, my mom was unwilling to give him anymore second chances.
             The comparison between Nate O'Riely and my dad would be that they both abused drugs and alcohol. They were both given many second chances to recover and to become better persons. They had the opportunities to become better husbands and fathers. Unlike my dad, Nate went into rehab and over time changed his ways. ...
