Yes?

Do you believe in fate/destiny?

Do I believe in fate or destiny? Hmm, I believe that everything happens for a reason. That’s for sure! That being said, when I have plans to do something fun, something great, you know something Epic, and something comes up that makes it look like it’s not going to be able to happen…

For example… Big epic road trip with the family. You take time off work a month ahead or even a year ahead. Suddenly it looks like you’re not going to be able to make it because something comes up. Then a week before the road trip everything looks good and you’re going to be able to go, But wait uh-oh, two days later your boss calls because all hell broke loose at work and he could really use you. That to me is all it takes for me to cancel off that big and epic trip with the family. Why? To me that is the universe telling you, you shouldn’t go. It’s The universe trying to warn you that you aren’t supposed to go on that trip. Either because something bad’s going to happen while you’re gone, somebody that’s with you might get hurt if not you, or you’re going to have a serious breakdown, who knows maybe your house burns down. To me, if you have to try to hard to be able to go and it doesn’t come easy, I’d rather just not go.

One thing that really stood out to my family and I after our accident was the fact that things just kept coming up and we had to make a change or postpone something that probably actually shouldn’t have been postponed. I was laying in the hospital on life support and a few days after I came out of it, it was very apparent to my ex-wife and I that there were so many things trying to stop us from going to that family reunion, but, we went anyways and look what happened… At age 22, Uncle Donkeys 22nd chapter (22 years old), became the worst chapter in his book called Life. I’m about to go in to my 36th chapter on the 9th of March and let me tell you… Ever since then, you know, chapter 22… I pay attention to the signs and as long as I’m blessed and able to see them, I don’t push. If it’s meant to happen it will happen, it won’t be difficult, it’ll be smooth and it’ll flow. Effortless!

On another aspect of fate and destiny and whether or not I believe in them… I did not lose my virginity until my 18th chapter. I lost my virginity to the mother of my children and the only woman I ever married. We were together 11 years, married for almost five. She had one child when I met her, he was one and a half years old. His dad was not around and he was just a tool. I raised that child as if he’s my own and he lives with me today. Her and I had two children of our own together and they don’t get any special treatment because they’re my own. All three of them get treated the same. They are 19, 15, and 14 years old now. I’ve always had a set of rules since that divorce…

Now, since we divorced close to 9 years ago, I’ve only dated three other women. I have always believed that when it comes to things like true love and dating, meeting an incredible woman willing to give you her time and attention… First and foremost, as a man you need to respect that! I’m not saying there’s not going to be difficult times here and there. For instance, financial troubles, possible troubles with housing, difficulty getting through hard time at work. Aside from that, if that relationship is meant to be, it’ll be easy. She’s going to want to spend time with you just as much as you want to spend time with her. Your children will enjoy her presence and respect her and she will respect your children. By the way, I don’t care who you are! If you want children do not respect her and she does not respect them that relationship will never work and you are only doing harm to your relationship with your children the more you try to make it work. If you’re fighting to make a relationship with a woman work does not have that respect, you are only putting her before your children!

So to sum it up, fate and destiny in a relationship. Absolutely, yes! Those three other women I dated, I have a 6 month rule. If it isn’t easy after 6 months and we are not sitting down as a family at the table when we are in each other’s presents. Having a good time while also enjoying dinner… It’s not going to work out! She never has time for you… It’s not going to work out! Constantly jealous… it’s not going to work out! Everything you do bugs her or everything she does bugs you… It’s not going to work out! You should never expect her to wear a certain outfit or tell her she can only go to certain friends’s houses! Women like a man yes, but no woman likes a controlling man! The wheel turns both ways, if you make her happy she’ll make you happy! Every single time! Also, it is important that men and women have standards on both sides of their relationship. I want to be with a woman that knows her self-worth and respects herself. A lot of women like to be treated like they are your entire world.

I know I kind of got a little deep when it came to the subjects I went over today. I am just trying to make it up to you guys because I haven’t been posting much. Granted I’ve been going through a bunch of health problems, but still… I love to look at my stats and see how many people are reading and I really get excited when I see you guys liking what you’re reading! I am almost 1 year and one month into the future from when I made my first post and created my blog! Also, you may be happy to know, I have been gaining weight really well and my health is looking really really good. I feel better today and in the recent weeks then I have since, hell, before I ever even broke my neck! So, I’m very thankful for that!

Never forget to stop and be thankful, thankful for the good times and the bad. It’s the bad times that teach us and it’s the good times that keep us moving forward! Remember, if donkeydidit… You can too!
