Twenty

Today, 109 years ago, The New York Times created the word automobile. 1947 saw the first televised proceedings of the U.S. Congress. Alaska officially became a state 49 years ago. 20 years ago today, I was born.

Alongside J.R.R. Tolkien, and Eli Manning, I watch another year tick by.

It would seem that this would be an ideal time to say something clever, impart some words of wisdom, or create a modern proverb based on my time on earth.

The only thing I know for sure, is that life always goes on. No matter how hard things are, eventually those things become your past. The key to making it in this world, is to make sure the future is better than the past.

A buddy of mine certainly put it best; "Life is choices, with a bit of luck"

Thanks to all the friends, family, and acquaintances who have made year twenty so great. It is because of all of you, that I've made it as far as I have. I certainly am glad you'll all be here as I move forward, with the next twenty.
