Family is everything!

Life is precious. We don’t have forever. We have now. This moment. We can choose to love our lives now.

I’m just thankful that Ratz was spawned somewhere over that time. I love Ratz!

Not taking vacations with my late wife. We saved every dime we could saving up for a house. She died 6 months after we moved it at 30 years old.


GOD is good!

Hmm, I try not to acknowledge regrets, but...

I wish I would have been the songwriter in '84 at age 19, that I am today.
I should have moved to New York or LA, and got a music band together.

There is NO doubt in my mind, I would have had a successful music career, maybe not on par with The Stones, but I'd say I/we/our band could have had the success the REM or The Cult received.

Back then, the music/decision makers were mostly in New York and LA, unless you did "soul," then it was Detroit or Memphis.

This in a way.

I wasn't saved until my mid 30's even though I went to church until my teen years and knew what awaited me if I died without Christ. A 100% my biggest regret.

I do have other big regrets.
- I coulda been a better father
- I coulda been a better husband
- I coulda made a better shot on that big 10 point

R.E.M. is a one of the most under-rated highly rated bands of all time! True geniuses and influenced no telling how many bands while creating one of the most unique sounds in music. I don’t care about his personal stuff, Michael Stipe is one of the greatest front men to ever grab a microphone. Michael and Peter Buck created something that still hasn’t been duplicated. Peter Buck is one of the best guitarists to come out of the 90s and still one of the best of all time.

No real regrets as everything "bad" seemed to lead to something good.... I guess one, listening to one single bad piece of golfswing advice (that I asked for, not unsolicited) .... but it led to so much great that I certainly can't complain.

I'm not sure I have what I call regrets. There are experiences that ended up differently than I was expecting but its all led me to who I am today. I'm always gonna be a work in progress and I I've learned that I enjoy the journey about as much as the destination. I don't ever want to feel like I have nothing else to work towards to better myself.

Success is not built on success. It's built on failure. It's built on those days when you wanted to quit and didn't allow yourself to.


If anything I have a couple of relationships and friendships that I could of done a better job at but I'm still breathing and still have the opportunity to make amends.
