Write your own ending....

41.

Single again.

Alive (thanks God).

Healthy.

READY.
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At this point I've realized that I get to choose.

I've opened up a fresh journal.  Taken my pen.  Turned to a blank page.

and now I get to write.

I'll spend time thinking this through.  Each day a possible entry.  Every experience from here on out will fill the pages with some detail that I get to place in the pages.

For the next forty years I am going to be the one who decides.  God-willing it will be full of the moments that I want to remember.  Want to share with others.

I get to write my own ending.  And while I am NOT in control of when that ending will be, I will seek to fill the pages as if I were afraid to miss a thing.

Aerosmith put it in a song... a love song.  

I don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
Cause I'd miss you babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you babe
And I don't want to miss a thing

Maybe someday I'll add that special person.  But even now - I'm going to keep breathing.  Keep living...

So I won't miss a thing.
