Welcome

This site is a personal blog of one man's journey from the modern world to a wholesome life. A life that he can be proud of. A life which, when it has reached its end, will have proved to have been worthwhile. A life that was lived fully.

At the time of this writing, I am 35 years old. It is September 24th, 2024. What I will say about my life thus far is that it has been a very rewarding one. I've been happily married for 15 years, and I have two wonderful children.

I do not wish to portray that I am regretful in any way of how my life has gone. That's not what this blog is about. I believe that your life, as it is today, is the result of all of your previous choices, both good and bad. It seems risky to me to say that we would want to change anything about our past. Although hindsight is 20/20, as they say, we just don't know exactly how all of our choices have worked together to bring us to where we are today. Therefore, I find it much more beneficial to be a good steward of our futures than dwellers upon our pasts, and that's what this blog is all about.

It's about rekindling the joy of the simple truths of life. It's about becoming a better man, husband, and father. Not least of all, it's about sharing that with all of you good people.

In short, there is a lot of life that I feel I am leaving by the wayside. I have been complacent to stagnate in my modern life. It is as though I have merely been an observer of my life. It is that which must change. If to sin is to miss the mark, then I am doubly guilty for not having aimed. I have long been due for a change, and I make that change now.

I sincerely hope you enjoy your time here. Wishing you all the best.

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.
