Isn't weird to think of how much your hopes and dreams have changed since you were a child or even since you were a teenager or closer yet, how they change from year to year as an adult. I've been thinking about dreams lately. It amazes to me how different my dreams have become now that I'm older and wiser. As a child I had very simple dreams; I wanna be a firefighter, I wanna play baseball, i want a new bike. As a teenager I had much larger aspirations; I want to be famous, i want to change the world, i want to be rich. Well I'm 0/3 so far on those but you never know i think my modeling career is gonna take off soon haha.
Now that i'm older and wiser i realize that my dreams have become much more simple and quite reachable within my lifetime. For one I want to marry Liz and live happily ever after. That journy begins in decemeber and i cant wait for it. Second, I want my actions and words to be a blessing to others. I want God to use my testemony and story to help people find the change and happiness they need in their lives. Third, I want to have children, this could be difficult because hodgkins lymphoma often leaves men sterile after treatment. I pray more than anything that God's plan for me involves healthy children. Fourth, I want to be cancer free.
That sounds simple enough.
In less serious, less emotional news. The Tigers start their season on thursday at 1pm. I can't wait!! They are going to be contenders this year. Hopefully I'll be able to make it down to see a couple of games this summer. Once again I'd like to thank all of you for the termendous support you have all given me!! I feel like I have an army behind me helping me fight this thing!!
Just a reminder: This saturday there is a jewelry party benefit from 6:30 to 9:30 at the Midland Resort (old holiday inn) room 112 i think.
Also there will be a spaghetti dinner benefit on april 16th from 3 to 7 at Messiah Lutheran Church. There is going to be a large silient auction too with some amazing stuff being auctioned off.
I think your modeling career will take off soon, too, but it doesn't hurt to start small! I'm pretty sure I heard that they were holding auditions for a new Mr. Clean... ;)
ReplyDeleteI love the positive attitude, Nick! You are definitely an inspiration to others. See you Saturday! *hugs* <3
I think the Tigers will need some prayer too...or maybe it's just b/c they started off against the Yankees. They Royals too for that matter! =) Wish we didn't live so far so we could make it to the benefit.
