What in the world...?

Good morning!  I figured it would probably behoove me to explain what I am doing here...and what in the world this blog is about.

First, this blog is about me.  Moi.  Me, myself, and I.  Selfish?  Eh, maybe a bit.  But hear me out!

I'm almost 40.  I have been feeling for some time that my life is passing me by, and rather than being the driver, that I've been a passenger for most of my adult life.  I've blinked, and the last 20 years have passed me by.  Where did the time go?

I don't know...

But I know where it hasn't been. It hasn't been doing the things I enjoy.

I am a man who was born 200 years too late.  I know, a lot of people SAY they feel that way.  I truly was born 200 years too late.  I see myself in buckskins striding across the Rockies trapping beaver and other furbearers, hunting for my needs, along with some gathering.

Unfortunately, because of other demands on my life, I have been unable to do much of this the last 20 years.  It stops now.  IT STOPS NOW.  I'm tired of living my life for others.

I'm tired of taking one step towards the life I want to live, and the person I want to be...and two steps back.

This is my story, and my steps forward.  Enjoy.
