That's life, just live it.

About Me

I have lived a very interesting and eventful life in my 44 years on this planet and unless you had been there, you would not believe the life I have lived.I have been on my own since I was 17, I married right out of high school and instead of going to college, I joined the Air Force. I credit the Air Force for helping me grow-up and figure out what was important in life. Since leaving the Air Force, I have owned or co-owned 3 business and now I am very happy designing and teaching business and safety classes for the third largest trasportation company in the U.S.I married my 2nd wife and the love of my life in 1996 and we have been happily married now for 11 years, deciding to share my life with her is one of the smartest things I have ever done.I have a 24 year old son from a previous relationship, I am extremely proud of him and the man he has become, his mother desrves most of the credit, since I was not there for the majority of his younger years. He is the joy of his father's life. I am a very lucky man to have to special people like them in my life and I thank god for each of them everyday.I try to live each day like tomorrow will never come, for when tomorrow does not come, I will know, I have lived with no regrets. This is not just a saying it is a philosphy I use for living my life. I am very thankful to have this time to share with ones I love, since in all truth; I should not still be here on this earth.My greatest accomplishments to date are my Family and friends.
