Happy Birthday to me.

I turned 25 years old today. Coming from Richmond, California I feel that I'm blessed to see 25 but deep down I know that I have a lot more living to do. Being here in Manilla, Philippines has been a great experience. The Alaska Aces are a great organization and I know that we are going to wen the "Governors Cup". I'm here with my wife, Sable, and one-year old, Kendell Rose. I have been in awe of her development. This is the third country she's been to since she was born (USA, France, and Philippines) and you can see all the culture in her. Her personality is fun loving but she will get an attitude quickly if you annoy her. The angle Sable and I are trying to take with her is to give her all the freedom she needs without hurting herself. Its like Picasso - you have to let him paint - and Kendell's development is truly a work of art. I am not here to pretend like marriage is the easiest thing in the world because we all know that it's not. As humans we sometimes fall short but forgiveness and perseverance turn those shortcomings into lessons to be taught to others. I've learned that everyone has problems in their lives but what's bigger - the problem or you? 

         Our first game is this coming Wensday. I am looking forward to playing with a positive team that wants the best for the team. I see that it's all about the team and everyone fights for each other. That is true from our owner to the trainers. The slogan is "We not me" - that's the culture - and I'm a believer in the phrase "If it's not broke then don't try to fix it". Thank you to every one that has been with me on this journey and I promise that this blog will be more consistent.
