LOL...if it's not then it certainly leads to it.

Wow, very inspiring.

I'm definitely more laid back as I get older and a few weeks ago I realized that I too prefer my small great circle of friends vs the large rager style party. In fact, I'd rather spend a day with my niece and nephew than go to a party. So, I completely understand giving up "fun" things for your children.

My heartache wasn't a broken heart at all. I just didn't take the amount of disappointment very well. I had to learn that some people are just not good people and I cannot and do not have to make sense of it, all I can do is accept it. But, I'm grateful that rather than allowing it to turn me bitter, I chose to learn from it. I'm very grateful, happy and most of all extremely lucky.

Thank you for the early birthday wishes.

Your wife is beautiful!

Ahhhhhhhhhhh Grassssssssshopper, you have grown quite wise in our 40....errr um, 39.999 years...

All of this introspective is giving me KUNG FOO flashbacks... That and eating another batch of Hud's KUNG FOO mushoomies I guess...

You made me think of this great prayer:

Serenity Prayer
Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971)

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
enjoying one moment at a time;
accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
that I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
forever in the next.
Amen.

That's the Serenity Prayer used at Al-Anon meetings.

Sorry it didn't work for you. Welcome back.

[Eli]

Sorry it didn't work for you. Welcome back.

Jordy, pay attention...it's free!

I didn't go to AA. No need to, they'd laugh at me if I claimed I'm an alcoholic who drinks 2-4 times a month...during a good party month. Lol

You're making me want a glass of wine
