while I sit here in costa coffee sipping a gingerbread latte while Lucas enjoys his hot chocolate I am reminded of a thought I’ve had a lot recently. my life is awesome.
in the lead up to Christmas a few people have asked me what I want and while I’ve made a list the truth is I have most of the things I want in life and if I really chose to I could have the others. sure there’s gadgets I’d like and I’d love a nice car but for everything else I’m sorted.
what percentage of people have a great job they find challenging and live, a nice house, a family they love, live surrounded by things they enjoy and are as hearty as oxen.
someone we know through the geek community died recently. he was my age. I never knew him that well but we interacted a fair few times and I knew his name instantly. his death affected me more than I realised, reminding me how lucky I am in so many ways.
