We all have this vision of our lives,
With dreams hopes and aspirations
We think we know what we want and need
But somewhere along the journey
We find something worth so much more.
For me it was my wife.

She came into my life so quickly
And changed me to the core
My work and interests were replaced
My selfish dreams became no more
Slowly but sure our lives changed together
Our love evolved as did our needs

I still have goals and dreams in mind
That I chase less than before.
On this path that I take
I learned something more
No matter what road you are on,
You never know what it’s truly for.

Embrace the journey and the pain
What you want and need in life
Will never be the same
I never expected to be where I am today. to have a family and a wife that I love so much. A wife that loves me, understands me, and is willing to walk with me through the rough and good times. I was focused on being an entrepreneur and making money and never thought I would be a father and husband at the age of 22. I did not chase this dream but it chased me. I gained so much more on my journey than my end goal. I am truly blessed.

I love you Babe.
