Over the last few weeks I have been spending a lot of time in thought as to what is really important to me in my life. Call it a midlife crisis (I am sucking up to 40), call it soul searching, call it what ever you like but it has been a powerful experience with me. Over the last few weeks I have thought a lot about what I want for the future, for myself as well as my family, and have thought about what is really important in my life. I have discovered it isn't the car I drive, it isn't the house I live in or the vacations I do or don't take, but it is the six other people I share my life with. Those are The Important Things in my life and without those things I have no life.
