Am I too old for this?

I am 35 years old, for now…By the time I was 30 I had already been married and was on my way to divorce. I had a career that was going well even though without a college education it was limited. I have children who are my motivation for doing everything. Here I sit now, about a year away from getting my bachelor’s degree but in reality I see now that I am starting over. Not just career wise but in life at general. I now have an amazing girlfriend who is beyond supportive. I am on the threshold of starting a new career. I realize however that I am most likely one of the older people doing this. Am I too old to start over and be relevant? Am I just fooling myself here? I don’t believe I am but I have been wrong before.

 

Somewhere over the rainbow…..or under it.

As a child I was taught that at the end of the rainbow there was a pot of gold, but what if there is no pot of gold for some of us? I mean it seems like a depressing concept but let’s be honest, if “EVERYONE” got the happy ending it would lose meaning, it wouldn’t be a poignant ending to movies and stories and we certainly wouldn’t be drawn to fairy tales. Maybe I am one destined for the army of the gold less and if that is to be my fate, then I will rejoice in the times I saw the rainbow, I will lament it’s loss but it will also make the story of those who get their gold much more important. To all those out there who have the gold, I salute you and hope you enjoy and hold onto it and to those like me, enjoy their success and strive for your own.

 

F$ck A Duck?

What an interesting saying, but what does it imply about the “manhood” of the man who says it? I would choose a goose anyway, aren’t they the more attractive water fowl?

 

Umm…

It is the greedy hand that feeds but one mouth while the giving hand feeds many.
The angry hand hurts while the kind hand heals all hurt.
