I know that 50 years isnt a lifetime, but it is an age that during my youth seemed unattainable. Would I see 50? What would I be doing? Where would I be doing it at?

I hope to tell stories of my life that have had a profound (somewhat) or lasting (for now) effect on my existence. You may find this to be the ramblings of some guy with an agenda, false hope, or a mid life crisis. Quite the contrary…I hope to gain nothing from this experience except to maybe inspire thinking, open positive discussion, and perhaps share life examples, for others, on things to do and not to do.

In the end we all want to leave this earth with the hopes of making a difference in some small way. Sometimes its just a smile or nod to the right person at the right time. Little things mean a lot to people whom are going through daily struggles. Maybe, just maybe, this is my nod or smile to you.
