I have wanted to do this for a while, but I was afraid.  I was afraid of what people would think.  Then I saw this inspirational video from this 17 year old artist who lives just outside of Cambridge, England.  She reminded me that we only have a short time here, so we better make it worthwhile.  Thank you Frankie.

Hopefully, in the end, there will be a meaningful record of what is important to me.

This site is dedicated to my lovely wife and two beautiful children.

My promise:

It will be honest.
It will be meaningful.
I will never ask you to "please share".
I will do my best to post at least once a week

Hurrah for you!! I'm all about recording bits of us for our kids so that when we are old and crazy they will be able to read what we've written during a time in their lives there was no way they could truly know us. And even better that it's from a dad. Far too often our record keeping is solely from the mom's perspective.

I look forward to future posts!

David,
I am a 16 year old boy who is very thoughtful about big ideas. I stumbled upon your website a few days ago and have been thoroughly enjoying. Although I know that you cannot tell me the full truth, I do appreciate your perspective ;)
Keep up the good work- the world needs more people like you!
