Never thought this day would come before my late 20's or early 30's. It really is true, we never know what fate has in store for us just a few steps ahead of where we stand today.
I have had an amazing life thus far, and in the process I have learned and seen a great deal of things. In my moments of solitude I have come to cherish the presence of my own company and have even learned to be perfectly content doing things on my own. In the past few months, however, I have come to realize more than ever before that happiness is undoubtedly better when shared. This realization became possible thanks to the beautiful woman and human being I intend to share my life with for the rest of my days.
Some people have asked me whether this decision has really sinked in yet. After all, this is the crossroad from which my life will undergo a revolutionary turn from what it has been up to this point. My response to that is that this whole situation simply feels natural to me.
The fact of the matter is... I could have easily continued doing what I’ve been doing and going out solo to keep exploring the world, seeing new places, meeting new people, and having different experiences. Nevertheless, I believe that the whole purpose of having such experiences is coming to grips with who you are and realizing what has true value to you. As a good friend of mine once told me, “when you feel that something is right, you should not take that feeling for granted... ever.”
I rest assured that this is the best decision I have ever made.
Excited to see just how much colorful and splendid life can get with a family of my own.
