Just a bunch of random thoughts...none of which I've gotten from anywhere else.
And by saying that, you can decide whether I'm bragging or I should be apologizing.

hypothetical
If you had a choice between never again feeling physical pain or mental pain the rest of your life, which would it be?
I've thought about this for awhile (though the length of time is not directly proportional to how well-thought-out my answer will be ;-))
I'd say neither... and both. I'd like to not have to feel any pain that isn't productive in some way. -Thankfully, most pain is [productive], and leads to growth (of some kind, on some level)... or at least increased awareness (of something, on some level).
I am The Dad of a family of 6 or 7 or 8, give or take, amazing kids (depending on your definitions of what constitutes a kid), with the most amazing partner ever in Cheryl, in West Vincent PA in the house my dad built back in the 50's. I graduated from Westtown School and Earlham College, with a degree in Psychology, which doesn't explain how I became an accountant. I've been a Quaker since I was 2 months old and a Phillies fan since I was 7. Being a Quaker has served me far better.
I hope you enjoy this blog. Let's try to keep it vitriol free.
