To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment. -Ralph Waldo Emerson

The future is coming...


Many events have occured in the last year...some written about some not. The past has happened and nothing can change that. What can be impacted, however, is the future. Every person has the ability to decide who they will be, but the biggest question I have for myself is... "Who will I become?" I know who I want to be... I just don't know how to acheive it. What I do know is that the people who have made their way out of my life have all contributed to shaping the man I am today. I in no way believe that I am perfect, i'm probably the furthest from that, but I do believe that I am a good person for the most part. I believe that I will, somehow, manage to be a good husband and father. But that fear still lingers..."What if i'm not?" I mean, after all I am only 18. But, others around me have seen it, and Tyler tells me I will be. So obviously I'm doing something to show it. The only thing that is 100% certain, is that the present is fantastic, and I am happy. That's something I haven't been able to say a whole lot in my life...but I can proudly say it now without a doubt in my mind.


"The past is history, the future is a mystery, but every day is a gift. That's why it is called the present."

PART II:
But probably the most life changing thing about the job is the $28,875 salary...that's basically $13.50 and hour. That's an extra 1500 a month to pay bills and save to give Ty the best wedding I can give her. Ace just isn't cutting it any more and it won't take me anywhere. I'd do anything to get this job. I want a career.
PART I:

So today I had a couple interviews at Scottsdale Insurance. The first position is for a Senior Imaging Processor...this job I can't even express how much it could mean for me. It is a great entry position, and has incredible opportunities to move up through the company. On top of that they cover health care for me and my girl once we get married.

So the wedding date has officially been finalized :) I'm getting married October 22nd and I can barely contain my excitement! Ty is working on her kick ass shoes and invitations, her bouquet, and my boutonniere are all on the way :) this is the happiest time of my life right now and it will only get better from here!
Until next time.

So I just wanted to make a quick post about the most amazing person in my life...Tyler, you came into my life a little over a year ago and instantly I knew there was something special about you. Only a short month later was I head over heels for you...I don't show you enough, and I sure as shot don't express enough how much I love you and much I appreciate everything you do. I owe all of my happiest memories to you, and I owe my happiness to you.
You have been my rock and my best friend in every situation, even when I don't deserve it. Lately I haven't been the nicest to you, and I am so incredibly sorry baby, but I am going to make it up to you and I'm going to work on being a better husband before we get married in 17 months. I love you with all of my heart Tyler Neeley, and there isn't a single person in this universe that could ever make me feel the way you do.
