Life Lately

The last 18 months have been some of the hardest and most rewarding.  But I also think those two attributes go hand in hand.  Nothing is worth something unless you have to work for it.  There have been numerous times in my life when my parents were trying to implant that in my head.  Well...point accomplished.


Life is tough and when problems rise you have two options:  run or face it head on.  I've tried both, whether it has been in relationships, work problems, or finances.  Sometimes it just seems easier to turn the other way and pretend that the problems are not there.  In fact, I think that is what most people do.  We live in an alternate reality, where we get to pick was is real and what is not.  Over the last 18 months, Stephanie and I have decided to take the bull by the horns.
