Welcome to This Man's Life

I've decided to call my blog "This Man's Life". In the extremely unlikely event that you're familiar with the 2008 movie of the same name, please allow me to speak briefly about the differences between the movie and this blog. The plot summary for the movie is as follows:

"A magical tale about a man traveling home to claim his estranged father's inheritance when he encounters a peculiar stranger that seems to know everything about his life."

This blog is about me and my life, right now.

My life is not a magical tale. I am not estranged from my father. And, while I agree that meeting a stranger who seems to know everything about you is strange indeed, I have never had this experience. As a side note, should this ever change I expect I would require at least a short break from blogging.

So who am I? Well, I'm a husband and a father. I'm also in the midst of a career change and as part of that I'm now a full-time student. I'm busy and constantly challenged, but I believe my life is pretty darn good. It isn't perfect and neither am I, but I'm not sure I'd trade what I have with too many people. I am unquestionably in one of the more interesting periods of my life and look forward to sharing my experiences, my thoughts, my concerns and any wisdom I may possess with anyone who may benefit from or simply enjoy reading them.

My life is full of new experiences, with many more to come shortly. It's hardly the stuff of Hollywood script writers, but believe me, I wouldn't have it any other way.

I welcome you to share in "This Man's Life".
