Someone recently suggested to me that I should have more fun. “Life’s too short,” he reminded me. Life IS short, which is why I stopped having the fun I used to regularly take part in. My life used to be full of nonstop fun, screwing around and achieving nothing. I’m through with that type of “fun!”

Waking up at 4:00 am is fun, knowing I’m teaching my daughter she can have anything her imagination can picture – all it takes is a willingness to work harder than the majority surrounding her.
The past kind of fun I took part in would’ve taught her how to be lazy and afraid. It would’ve shown her that mediocrity is an o.k. way to live and taking risks isn’t a normal part of life. The type of fun I used to have would’ve kept me out of her life the majority of nights and weekends, as I high-fived buddies and lived for the football team of my choice.
The old fun was exciting … and selfish. My new fun is committed … and dedicated to my family’s future and legacy!
