Good AYK....the last few posts sound like the guy I am more accustomed to. I really like what Trapt said above...simple, concise, and to the point.
Remember going out doesn't have to involve drinking or running around...well maybe running around. I dedicate at least an hour a day to working out. That is my time...I work hard and I think and ponder between sets. Or I run and think of things ranging from my wife to the weather. In the end....it is time spent on myself physically and mentally. An investment in my self and my personal identity.
I also went out and started playing touch football with a bunch of strangers. They don't know me or ask about my situation...I am able to just be me and play some football. The key being that I get to be me....not the family...not a dad...or a husband. Just me!
