Three years ago at Christmas I was living in a tiny apartment in Uptown, developing a history of being absurdly incorrect when it came to finding love and completely unaware of how to get to the next level of my life.
Today I live in an awesomely spacious house, am married to phenomenal and loving woman and am gonna be a dad in 2012. Man...
Life moves at such breakneck speed that it can be really hard to take a step back in appreciation. Apprecation for the wayward journey that brought me to this fsupposed fairy tale land of sunshine and rainbows. I don't feel I'm necessarily deserving of complete happiness but I've found it all the same. It's also hard to find too much truth in the theory that good things happen to good people, since there are countless great people who have had terrible luck in life. All I really know is that I went to my parents house in Wausau three years ago as a kid who didn't have a clue. And I'll be going there tomorrow as a man who has figured a few things out.
Hurtling toward the unknown world of fatherhood is coming with greater anticipation as each day passes. When you've had a year like I've had, it's hard not to feel stirringly confident that greater things are to come. Ain't no stopping me now...
