children, marriage, emotions, and more. things that now make me smile. i remember times when i was, or think i was, the ultimate bachelor. cold hard reason controlled my life. emotions, i had no need for them. children, hardly. couldn't stand them. marriage, no sanctity there. i was a firm believer in divorce. that was then, this is now. getting closer in touch with all sides of my psyche. watching little children now brings a smile to my face, and a question of what will my own kids be like someday? marriage is such a sacred vow. 'til death do us part. lucky people get married happily forever. i'm no longer what i used to be good or bad? different, that much is true.
