I am eligible for retirement in just 16yrs 1mo 4days. Ill only be 48. Ill be young enough to do to what ever I wish….but I want to be able to back up with the funds. Several years ago I started contributing to a Deffered Comp account, but I really need to up that. Furthermore, the Union just started a 401k program, if I could sacrafice now, it will pay off ten fold then. I should in fact pack the 401k to the max that my company will match and then invest the over flow into the Deffered Comp.

I have always been a picture freak when it comes to family, but I have a new found interest in taking in the beauty of nature. Maybe it was a move out of the city and into the country that did it to me, but I find myself looking at the simplest things in a different light. I find myself going nowhere with out my camera anymore.
I have totally realized that God lives within the soul and not in a building. That in and of itself has brought me closer to him. By following my heart I am following God. I by no means am perfect, in fact far from it, but I am at more peace with who I am. That I genuinely a good person Even if I can still be an asshole from time to time, guess thats just being human.
You can burn down all the churches, synagogues, mosques, etc. because God lives in your heart and tools in your soul.
