First...congrats on the promo, birthday and becoming a grandfather. I also see a ton of positives in your sitch. I've been around since you first joined and Tad...... you are NOT the same man! You have overcome some many challenges in just a few years. From where I sit, you have been through hell and back and YET here you are....
1) Getting a raise (I remember when you were not working)
2)Having drinks after work with a lady that interest you (I get that is not progressing at the speed that you want. It still in light years away from the place you were...when you never left the house).
3) You are a grand daddy now to the boys who YOU stood with, who YOU made sure they were okay, who YOU were the rock for - even when you could barely stand yourself.
You have come a long way and I suspect these feelings that you have regarding your age....are because you may be a bit tired. Look man it is okay to feel then. You know the drill....do not hang on to them as they do not serve you well.
I'll take a sec and remind you of db101 - "change how you look at things"..
If you keep walking around telling yourself that you feel old - guess what...you'll feel old. Why not reframe it and say to yourself that I am bit worn, I need to rest up a bit and then plan my next move.
You got this man!
So how about this idea....
Take a look at finances, let me know when you can make it to Vegas (after April of next year please)...and I promise that I'll try and meet ya. Trust me....i'll help wipe that "feeling out" sentiment right out of you.
Oh...and remember...what happens in Vegas.....
You know how to reach me if you need to talk (same number).
Peace, Eric
