Do you have a kid out there you haven't been around for ? What about the guy doing the father figure role a job we as birth fathers should be doing. Every guy has a story on why he was not around for his kid or kids. After so many years has passed do you wish to be located and face the judgement before you about what happen , where were you ? Am I ready to face his judgement ? What can we say to help our kids understand why things happen the way they did. I'm facing that question now.
I was contacted By my son through my facebook page. He has my looks and full name and the kicker is he asked me about being married to his mom. He is 18 now but I last saw him when he was 2 years old when I was married to his mom.
For the first time in my life I'm feeling this fear of contact to meet him . What is there for me to say A lot of years has gone by and there are people In his life now who have raised him to this point of his jorney in life to growing up. what role for me do i have or his reason for knowing who i am .My feeling about this is no there is no chance for me to have any role in his life how can I . How can you have or earn a role as a father when you haven't been around for years ? look at all the things you missed but mainly not being there to talk with. Boys learn to become men from their father learning life lessons and rules. Now he has learned what there is from another man his step father and the love that was yours as a father is in the heart of the step father . A guy who has been around teaching , loving and showing himself to be the father that your kid or kids didn't have in their lives.
So ask yourself what is it worth to be contacted by a kid that never knew you . ?

what is it worth to have old co workers or friends pop back up into your life ? Is there a motive to it or is it life reminding you of something that need to be corrected or something to remind you of bad emotions you had of the job or growing up.There is nothing wrong with old friends just showing back up in your life because there are people we've met that we lost track of over the years that we want to stay close to but really what about old co worker people you really don't call friend. But someone I once worked with.
When we change jobs and time has passed old co workers are not people I want tracking me down just to remind me of how crazy things were back then. I'm not sure about you let me run onto someone I grew up with as a kid an old school mate now that reliving life" wow those were the days".old co workers only remind you about things we want to forget and never want to remember "we did that on the job and remember when you got fired sorry no not my cup of tea. That is a part of my life I forget about and moved on from Not sure how you feel about the subject but old co workers who needs them. Every job I've worked wasn't the best in the world and I met some nice people but reliving that moment in life is well "I pass".
We live in a time where the Internet Is a strong part of our lives and social networking is king. We put our information out there for the world to see and people are now able to just enter your name and "poof " there is all your info there for all to see. Is it really worth it to make contact with an old co worked or old friend ?
Ask yourself did this person really like me when we worked together or grew up together ?
And what takes the cake is you Invite an old friend to a party or social gathering to catch up on old time and low and behold they get drunk and become the life of the party and open up about everything they know about you things that was wiped out of your mind and forgotten about and now it's out for you to relive the moment all over again .well that's just my opinion tell me what you think we all have our own opinion about the matter of how we feel about friendship .But remember this Long lasting friendship does not happen in a day. It takes years to develop understanding and higher levels of trust, if you want to boast of having old friends. It needs equal efforts from both sides to make the relation work.

Went into the local MacDonald the other day and I felt like I've walked back Into the 60s. I must say mickey Ds is doing everything they can to draw families back to eating in. The drive thu is like the God now for eating out and it's crazy. What ever happen to the days of just sitting down and enjoying a meal. Back in the day I remember when my mom use to take the family to MacDonald we sat inside and had a few good laughs and really enjoyed the moment. Yes the place was plain but hey the family was together. Here are a few pictures I took on the inside tell me what you think and how do you feel about the way the restaurant are adding themes to the sitting to draw back the families.

How great it is to draw what you feel ,see or whatever is on your mind. Is it a work of art or an eye sore .Are these the drawings of a mad man or someone with deep feelings for art? Unless you have an open mind you could never understand the drawings or see what the artist is feeling. Or the message he is trying spread.

Have you ever sat back and wonder what happen to people to bring them to this point in their lives to be living in the streets. Did they make a wrong turn back at the cross roads and ended up to this point ? Some of the homeless had good jobs nice homes and a family. Are we all looking to face a life as this ? There are families facing this everyday and the sad thing about it is the kids don't understand what is going on. One thing I must say if you're one of the many people in the world spending money and living beyond your means and don't think this can happen to you " well the numbers are rolling and it will bring you to the cross roads next ".

How cool is this riding by the city public works building and '' WOW  WTF '' this thing caught my eye. first thing that cross my mind is bug spray wont help with this. check out the pictures taken with my Iphone.

Can this be the way we look at our daily problem. After a heavy down pour the sun will shine again showing itself to us as to say your problems are tempo just as the rain.

Not a care or worry in the world. To be at peace with yourself.

What's missing from this picture ? KIDS !
Went to the park with my kids this weekend and when we got there I was lost as to where was everyone at. No ball playing no families Having a cookout it was dead quite.was I missing something ? Doing my days as a kid growing up coming to the park was something we looked forward to on the weekends wow what happen other than the passing of time like I must ask. "computers,iPods,gaming systems, tech toys they call them. It's like we as adults are bringing our kids up as tech geeks. I can't point a finger because I guilty as well but I feel we need to take our kids by the hand and say ok back to the basics turn off the tv put away the computer games and let's go to the park. Fresh air family bonding and interaction with other kids.Is that's asking to much. As parent we don't really know our kids anymore because we work long hours everyday and we don't spend time with them. So let's
End the way this picture look and regroup as a family before it's to l
