The Square Peg

Hmmph. At 2:36 this morning, my "baby" turned 19.

He can eat with utensils, wipe his own butt, wash his own laundry, clean a house, add and subtract, read, manage a checking account, knows how to carry on a conversation appropriately with an elderly adult, change a baby's diaper, and appreciates cute kids and puppies and the joy their innocence brings to the world. He lives true to himself while being a loyal friend and wannabe commedian who knows how to enjoy life. He'll be a great husband, father, uncle, and world contributor.

Mission accomplished. Where did the time go?

Are you a thermometer (reflecting the temperature in the area) or a thermostat (changing the temperature)?

From the outside of my Starbucks cup today:
Do not kiss your children so they will kiss you back but so they will kiss their children and their children's children.

Most people spend their day doing one of two things: preparing or repairing.

Don't spend all your time repairing yesterday's mistakes. Fix what you can, and then begin preparing for tomorrow.

Avoid being near-sighted, focusing only on what is reflected in the mirror you hold in your hand. Become far-sighted by removing the mirror and looking toward the horizon of your future.
