The woman I’m going to marry is so good to me, it boggles my mind. I don’t know what I did to deserve her. Day in and day out, for more than two years, she has nourished my spirit and soul with an understanding of me that is difficult to adequately describe in words. It is humbling.
What did I do to deserve this?
I can’t say for sure. But here’s what I attempt to do in my life…
- I try to help most of the people who ask something of me
- I work hard, not just to make money, but to do great work, build an amazing, inspiring, and collaborative work environment, and care for my clients’ businesses as if it were my own
- I support and lift up my friends and peers when life knocks them down, to the best of my ability
- I put out content with as much honesty, transparency, and vulnerability as I can muster in hopes to connect with others and make them feel understood
I am not perfect. I don’t always succeed in these efforts. But, if I were to believe in the idea that “what goes around, comes around” then I must be doing something right.
Whatever it is, I’m going to keep my intentions the same. Because until I find something else, these will be my excuses for my good fortune. And even if it’s not the reasons, it’s still not a bad way to live.
