My Wish For You
*Where there is pain; I wish you peace and mercy. *Where there is self-doubting, I wish you a renewed confidence in your ability to work through it. *Where there is tiredness, or exhaustion, I wish you understanding, patience, and renewed strength. *Where there is fear; I wish you love, and courage. -Max Lucado

I have been married twice. No, that's not the wild part. But it might raise an eyebrow or two that I met both of them online in rpg's.

What/who changed my life and why
The book that changed my life is "The Good Earth" by Pearl S. Buck, because it shows the difference between achieving and maintaining success.
The movie that changed my life is: Trading Places, with Eddie Murphy and Dan Ackroyd. It drove home the point that different "classes" of people really do not understand each other at all.
The event that changed my life is having my eldest son wheeled into my room when he was a day old. I had not seen him before then, and when they left me alone with him, I wondered "What am I supposed to do now?"
