Great message. Thanks for posting. I had a epiphany about 15 years ago and ended up leaving my money making job to work different hours so i could be a father and husband instead of gone all the time. Not ever going to get rich and will probably work till I die but at least I have enjoyed what is important to me.

Good stuffs - I particularly like the line (paraphrasing)

Sorry for the double post - Sonny gets dibs on first putting it up last week.

An inspirationally brave person, no doubt about it.
