Today #1, was talking about getting older…called me saggy balls. LOL!
Sometimes I am in amazement, that I wake up and draw another breath. I am honored to get one more day of my life. For no matter how bad I complain, or things get I always know it could be worse. Sure my life isn’t perfect, who’s is. Though I usually look at the glass, and see it half empty, I need to remind myself coming from where I come from, I’m lucky to have a glass, let alone anything in it.
It’s funny, I never thought I would make it to middle-age, yet here I am. I almost didn’t make it. Actually I am shocked I did make it. I’ve got a good job, I’ve got a good family, I’ve got the greatest friends, roof over my head, and food in my belly.
I hate bringing in religious overtones, but I am truly blessed. My life has been a ping pong match, one day I’m sitting in jail, the next moment college, one moment a great state job, the next the unemployment line, one moment checking ID’s at a door of the bar, the next checking IP’s of servers holding data for a company.
One thing you can say about my life, it ain’t boring. This year I turn 37, facing straight on to 40. People loathe getting older, not me. I look forward to surviving another year. I look forward to the new adventures my life may bring.
