Wil Wheaton seems like the kind of man I'd like to be. I used to read his blog in like 2004/2006? And the interviews and writing I've seen just confirm he's a better person than me. And to hear what he went through with his family and the way he talks about it, it's obvious to me that either he's received good therapy, had good support around him, or was just naturally adept at emotionally processing and a way I probably never will be even with therapy.
