Motorcyle and Biker Ride Reports and General Info

Well here I am again, another birthday, I am now 46 years old. I must admit, it seems like the birthdays come much faster now than they used to. I guess I can finally accept the fact that I am getting old.

I have heard the bullshit about how the new 40 is the old 30, and the new 50 is the old 40. I have also heard the bullshit about "you are as only old as how you feel."

Bottom line, I ain’t what I used to be at 30, and there is no getting my youth back. I do feel great, but I am still getting older, and no bullshit saying is going to change that, so I am going to make the best of it, I have no choice right.

Hell, I am probably in much better shape than most 46 year old men. I am clean and sober. I gained some weight when I quit smoking over a year and a half ago, which I have since lost. I am now down to the same weight that I was when I played High School Football at Chatsworth High School. I work out six days a week and do 50 minutes of cardio each of the six days. On the seventh day of rest I still walk 30 minutes. I also practice martial arts and do Tai Chi as well. God willing, my body will hold up, and I will continue to be able to work out, because working out makes me feel great and is a great stress reliever.

Looking back at the past, I am not going to bullshit you; I would change a lot if I could. Many people say they would not change a thing in their past because it is what made them who they are today. I think they are BS’ing themselves. In the end there is no going back and changing your past. All you can do is try to learn from your past mistakes so that you do not repeat them, and move on.

I have had one hell of a life so far. I grew up much faster than most people. You can read a little about my past by reading what I wrote on my 45 birthday by clicking here.

This past year has been excellent. God has been real good to me. There have been some rough spots, but all in all it has been a good year. I know the economy sucks and many people are hurting. My business has suffered as well this year. Happiness is much more then just money, it is your relationships with people that count.

As I contemplate beyond today, all I can say is that the future looks good. I am going to try to make each day that I have on earth day count for something. What really gets me off is helping people; that is why I became an attorney in the first place. God willing, I hope to help many people this year.

It is now June 20, 2009. I was born at 9:21pm, 46 years ago tonight. Another birthday has come and gone. I am hoping to have one hell of a good ride tomorrow with friends.
