Reflecting upon 25 years of TJ...

I look at the number 25...and I think, WOW! I sure have grown up so fast! I went to a multitude of places during all of my time including Key West (twice), Homestead, so many cities in Iowa, Tacoma (Washington), Idaho, Ft. Walton Beach, and even where I am now in Orlando.

All the things I have done in life up to this point can drive me to several places including playing in one sport for three straight years (4th grade-Basketball, 5th grade-Football, 6th grade-Soccer), being in the band for my middle and high school years, being in the choir for my elementary and high school years, getting my high school diploma, my associates in arts degree, and (soon enough) my bachelors in arts degree...whew, that's a lot of talk.

Today, I celebrate a quarter of a century of my life in which I did it my way with the help of family, friends, and other people who have helped along the way as well. I am thankful for the life I am living so far and I hope it will only get better. What the future holds for me? No one knows, but I know it will be getting better as it shapes up...and who knows? maybe in the next 25 years, i'll be blogging with a career, a wife, and successes (wishful thinking, right?) For now, I celebrate my birthday with the fact that I lived through my early years as successful and hope to gain more in the next coming years!
