Happy Day

Just wanted to say that I had a very good Father’s day weekend!! My wife treated me great and I got to hang out with some of our best friends who helped make the weekend even better. I think there was only one thing that could have made it better…

Ummmmm….

It would seem that I am unsure what to write about anymore. There are so many things happening in the world today that I could write about or complain about or offer my opinion on, but none of it seems to be all that worthwhile anymore. My opinions are just that, my opinions and while that is not a profound thought by any means, it still rings true. Why does or should anyone care about my opinion or my thoughts over anyone else’s? Does something I do or someone else does , make them worth listening to? I’m really just an average guy with average thoughts on average things that generally I have no control over. This thought is what is driving me mad, that I have no control over too many things that affect the well being of myself and my family. Why do I not have more control? Why can’t I seem to get motivated to take the next step in life or make that daring leap into something that could prove to be the most life changing event ever? Is it that I require a certain amount of safety in everything I do? Doesn’t everyone? Does not making a leap of faith make me a weak person? Does it make me strong? Do I even care? Should I strive for more or should I be content with the life I have? My life is good. I have no reason to not be happy and yet here I sit, not unhappy, but discontented for sure. But, given the option would I make changes? Change can be scary and tends to cause uncertainty. Change is great when you don’t have repercussions, but repercussions can be severe, not only for me but for those whom depend on me. Too many doubts in the mind, but will I ever be able to force myself to be happy and content in the life I lead? Do I have a choice?

I am by no means attempting to throw myself a pitty party of any sort. These are all just thoughts that run through my head. I love my family and friends and would never change them as I have chosen them and they me for reasons that go beyond any normal form of comprehension, but sometimes I wonder, can I be more…

End the R-Word

Check it and go to http://www.r-word.org to fight the fight with us. It’s very important that we take this battle seriously and try to create a better future for our kids and for those with disabilities who lack the ability to really fight back!

More fun and inspiring video stuff

So, I was perusing the Vimeo site and caught this video on the main page. I just thought it was a really cool video that shows what the world could and should be like. It really exemplifies the power of positive influences and the power of living in the moment and just enjoying those whom you come in contact with. Anyway, just generally good stuff.

Photostuff I’d like to do

So I ran across this video recently and I thought it was pretty cool. I’d totally love to do a fashion style shoot like this with a couple. I need more time and resources and volunteers!!! LOL.

Quick Question

Should I bring back the gallery? I killed it awhile back and just never bothered putting it back up, not sure if it really mattered or not. Anyway, just thought I’d ask.
