Today is the birthday of the my eldest daughter Monty. As I sit in my new workplace alone as it is still early, I can't help but reflect the fact that it has been 8 years since I became a father and my life hasn't been the same since. I grew up practically living for myself, doing things for my satisfaction and my fulfillment. Later, I realized that a purposeful life is one that is lived for God. I was steered to the right path and it was all good. Then I was blessed with a lifetime companion and it made the journey lighter and enjoyable. On September 28, 2004, we were gifted with our first child and it became all the more meaningful. Now I am living for God, my wife and my two daughters and I am truly happy. Whatever this journey will bring me, I know that I just have to face it because it is just not me anymore, but it's for them too.
