Today was a snow day, and I really needed it. It was good to just relax and tie up some loose ends. I watched a few movies and now here I am. I know there are things all around me that are tempting me. I need to find the strength to do what I know I need to do. I am going to become the man I want to be. Alex Karras once said "It takes more courage to reveal insecurities than to hide them, more strength to relate to people than to dominate them, more 'manhood' to abide by thought-out principles rather than blind reflex. Toughness is in the soul and spirit, not in muscles and an immature mind." I have said a few times that I want to become the man I know I can be, and the man I want to be. I want to make a difference in this world. I want to be a positive example to my family, my friend, and to my students. I want to live a long, healthy and active live. I want to be a man of integrity. I want to be a loving husband, and father. I want to be what I feel a man should be.
