As I sit here in my living room watching the little one "Madelynn" playing on the floor with a toy at the age of two months I sometimes get jealous of what is going in that little brain of hers. How simplistic life is for her. No mortgage, career, and the numerous little payments in life that drives one nuts, such as an oil change. But as i sit back and think about all of the things that happen in life,hectic or not, you start to realize how great life is. The mortgage payment puts a roof over the head of the people that mean the most to me. My wife Natalie gets to raise her little daughter here, my dog Cooper gets to lay on the vents and get cool and I.....well I get to sit back and live the story.
Because of the events that have happened in my life, I have learned to become a positive person. Even the guy that helped me get the idea for this blogging escapade has helped with this. I used to be as pessimistic as a person can get. But with my family and the friends that I have how can one be negative about anything.
So as a summary for my first blogging experience I will leave you with this.
- There is a method to all of the madness that happens in our daily life. The problem for me lies in the fact that I don't understand that method until later on. I guess life is made up of 10% of what happens to you and 90% of how you respond to it.
Enjoy the Blog...I look forward to the ride.
I'll vouch for you being a pessimistic person before.... the shear fact that you became a positive person while coaching girls bball is amazing. You're going to be a great father and somehow cooper isn't screwed up.
ReplyDeleteLife is great, so great that one of your best friends ends up marrying a girl that had a giant picture of yours truly in her room in high school. Be positive about that one sucka..
