Eleven Years ago... A Boy!

Woke up today at approximately the same time I did eleven years ago. Hard to believe that my first born son is eleven today. Where did all those years go to? I don't feel that old. Does it happen over night? One day their babies and the next day they are having their own? Is that how it feels mom and dad?

Time seems to go so fast and the older I get the more that that seems true. Only 51 more days and I will be 40. That is just plain crazy. Not worried or stressing about it, it is only a number. I feel that I look good and have a better attitude then 10years ago. So that is proof positive that it is attitude that gets you by, not the digits you have.

Contemplating about the past choices I have made. Looking back on all the forks in the road. If I would have gone left instead of right? Where would I be today? Would it have been better or in the end do we get the best now? I think that. Remember I wrote long ago that we are where we should be now. Sometimes it just takes time and lessons to get here. Trying to understand the lessons is the hard part. Sometimes it shows up along the path, the why it happened that way and sometimes we never know. I am grateful to know some on my Whys in life. Some are still a mystery that I guess I don;t need to know just yet. Still on my journey. Many forks ahead. Happy and positive that life is good. Looking forward to the future and what it has instore for me. Life is good if we let it. Enjoy!
