Each year, we take time out of our lives to spend with our family and friends. There is really on a few times a year that mean anything to me personally. To me, it’s all about the kids. The only thing out of the entire life I live that is worth living to me, is my family.
Today is my son’s 6th birthday party. We’re going to spend the day having a party for him, so all of his friends and a few members of my family can come. But really, i ask myself, why? Why do we have these parties? Is it for the boy, or is it for everyone else? Sometimes I think to myself, It will help him build his character into a becoming a good man one day that will respect and take care of his family. Then there are times I think, he most likely wont remember this, so why do we do it?
Either way, it’s an opportunity to spend time with family and friends to have an afternoon away from work to relax a little and enjoy our afternoon. After all, Monday is another work day of shit in the trenches at work.
