life’s purpose

June 29, 2008

i had a good run.  Hell, i had a great run. But, i had my son which i’ve always felt was my life’s purpose. Now i have to raise him as best i can to become the man i know he can become. The hard part.  Of course, the doctor’s said he would never be born.  i knew otherwise.  And God gave him to us.

Some people say i am lucky.  Because i no longer have to drive.   Because i no longer have to garden.  Because i no longer have to do chores at home.  But they are wrong. i am lucky because i have a loving and patient wife.  Because i have a cheerful and healthy son.   Because i have friends and family that really care.
