Blogging , Blogging, Blogging. I started this experiment with my wife to see how far we/I could get....you know looking interested enough to get points and to be able to get to do what you want later on type look. Somehow it got to me, it allowed me to focus on the daily ins and outs of a married man's mind! The constant onslaught of checklists that a man has to go over in his mind to make his day go smoothly, like...."What time is the game", "Oh yeah I'm Married", "That girl is hot" and "Oh yeah never forget my wedding band" that kind of stuff!
But seriously this joint venture with my wife has been fulfilling. Allowing yourself to open up and express what is on the INSIDE is cleansing, something as men we don't do because it is interpreted as being weak among some men especially the old school group (grin and bear it, bite the bullet). My Dad could never tell me and my brothers that he loved us because and I quote "My father never expressed that feeling to me so that's why I never did it with you guys". It has only been later in life that he has started to loosen up and express how he feels about his family.
I say when you start to get older you start thinking about how you are going to get into heaven (get on the usher board, church choir, start doing charity work, etc.) and tell your son you love him. But with all honesty I luv the old man.
To my wife whom I love the ground she walks on, we will run into many speed bumps in our life but together we will smooth all of them out!
