I'm a dad. I've long thought that my gravestone (if I'm not cremated) could simply say "Here lies Brad. He was DAD". ...............We are "Born to Serve". Most people just don't realize it yet. We are here to serve others, not the other way around, nor to be self-serving.
I serve the Lord first, but I DO SO by serving OTHERS. Cuz, He doesn't really need anything, ya know?
Servant leadership is what I strive for. ...............I was found by a WONDERFUL woman, so I'm off the market. Sorry ladies! (Try Russel Crowe!) ...............Now that my youngest of 5 children is an adult, I'll be somewhat freed-up to resume a lifetime of walking thru life's trials and triumphs with My Lady. ...............My firstborn (and Only Daughter) is 26 and lives w/her best friend and working while finding her calling................My oldest son was honorably discharged from the Army, after serving with The Old Guard in Virginia and is an Army Reservist, while working a security job for now...............My middle kid is a married college-man and now a father himself and just bought his first house! ...............My 4th kid is on Convalescence Leave from the Marines after breaking his neck in training, and may soon be medically discharged, and HE'S buying a house, too!. ...............And my youngest son is in the Air Force, stationed at Bagram Airforce base in Afghanistan..........................Me? I relentlessly pursue excellence in my work, and I'm into politics and culture as it affects our lives, and the life of our country and the world beyond.
We are blessed to be a blessing.
I love meaningful conversation, and small group activities that build relationships, challenge the mind, and can be fun. Hey, I'm a fun guy!
And I blog. Read some at www.write-minded.blogspot.com ...............This shall change and grow, as do we all....
