I love this quote from Kristen Butler: "Sunsets ar I love this quote from Kristen Butler: "Sunsets are proof that no matter what happens, every day can end beautifully." It reminds me of the adage that says it doesn't matter what happens to you; how you deal with it is what matters. It is all about mindset. Your mind is such a powerful tool that we can train to help us successfully navigate through life with a positive attitude and not get "stuck" in our suffering when we want things to have gone a different way. The beauty of nature is that it reminds us every day that no matter what is going on for you, there is always something to be positive about and grateful for.

It's my 48th birthday today! I can't really believ It's my 48th birthday today! I can't really believe the number, but at the same time, I've never been happier in my life, so I'm good with it. What a year the last year has been. It was a year that seemed to be the bridge between me living the life I'd learned to live based on my experiences versus living my life the way I consciously choose to live it. 

It's been an incredibly empowering shift that makes getting older something I'm very grateful to experience. I thought I'd share some quotes about birthdays/aging that I like. Happy birthday to everyone else celebrating today or soon!

Happy Fathers Day to all the dads showing up for t Happy Fathers Day to all the dads showing up for their kids! 

Being a father is the biggest of blessings.

Just this past week, Jemma graduated from elementary school. Over the past few years, it has been an incredible experience to witness her determination, appetite for growth, and ability to adapt to change.

Her elementary school experience may be the most unique experience of any generation before her, with remote learning, social distancing, masks, and being separated from her friends for more than a year. Not once during homeschooling did I have to remind her to be ready for class, every single day during the pandemic, she was up, dressed, prepared, and sitting in front of her computer waiting for her teacher.

During this time, she moved from a below-average reader requiring additional tutoring to testing at an 8th grade level in 5th grade, which could have been higher, but they don't test any higher at her age.

She has the most supportive and tight-knit group of girlfriends I've ever seen. They revel in their uniqueness. They express themselves without fear and with pride in who they are.

To say I'm proud of her is, of course, an understatement. She has my love and my respect. What more can a father ask for? So happy fathers day to me!

It's a hard reality, but it's the truth. You shoul It's a hard reality, but it's the truth. You should never feel like you are not good enough in a relationship. You should never feel like you need to sell yourself to someone. You never have to be someone you are not to win someone else's attention. 

It's ok if you don't "fit" with someone. You are much better off being single than suffering in a relationship that isn't the right fit for you or your partner. There are people out there who will love you for who you are. 

While you are in a relationship with the wrong person, the right person might pass you by!

You have to be patient. Don't compromise who you are.

It's been 80 days since I last posted a picture on It's been 80 days since I last posted a picture on my Instagram. It's incredible how time flies. How is everyone? In that time, I've driven from Seattle to Moab to go 4WD'ing with four of my best friends, flown to  Charlotte and Atlanta on a work trip, finally gone to Australia with my daughter for three weeks to visit my family (which was wonderful), then back to Atlanta for work. Also, my daughter Jemma turned 11 at the end of March, and all of a sudden, I have a pre-tween on my hands whose social life is even more active than mine. Life is busy but so great! Here's a snap I took while the guys and I were 4WD'ing in Utah. It’s such an incredible part of the world!

I love this by @rupikaur_ It beautifully capture I love this by @rupikaur_ 

It beautifully captures the reason why I adjusted to start saying "you're a beautiful person" rather than just "you're beautiful".

 It seems particularly important to share here on Instagram where an unhealthy amount of value is attached to people's looks.  We can do better.

I’m one-year alcohol-free! ✅ It wasn’t easy I’m one-year alcohol-free! ✅

It wasn’t easy at times. The first three weeks were incredibly not easy. Parties, birthdays, anniversaries, dates, camping trips with the guys, not easy. Bad days, really not easy. Now that I’ve passed the one-year mark, not easy. 

Now what? 

I still want to drink. I don’t think of myself as having a problem. I chose to stop drinking because I started to want to drink more than I thought was healthy. I wanted to re-establish a more healthy relationship with alcohol. 

But now I’m asking myself, should I stay alcohol-free? Or could I start drinking lightly again now and not fall into that old habit? Did I really have a problem? Are these the thoughts of someone who was able to stop drinking cold by himself for a year and can manage to drink only socially again, or are these the thoughts of someone who does have a problem? Am I overthinking it? 

Where’s the roadmap to success for this stuff? What does success even look like?

The journey continues… we are all a work in progress. 🙏🏼

This is how I feel while Russia invades Ukraine! This is how I feel while Russia invades Ukraine! 

While this poem was written about the devastating fires in Australia in 2020, it captures the sense of helplessness and the almost shame I feel just going about life as if nothing is happening. 

I feel like this about every war and pretty much every injustice I see. 

But the injustice at this scale hits me hard. 

Beautifully written @bymariandrew!
