...I have a friend named Brian who is a professor of ethics.  One of the assignments he gives his students is to write their own obituary.  It's an effort to get them to think beyond the present moment.  If you did this right now, how would you see your life from its end?  That you were a devoted and loving husband and father ...  A strong man, a leader, one held in esteem by others?  Or that you drifted through life, existing on a succession of one-night stands and failed relationships, both social and personal?  That you were a failure. And that possibly your only accomplishment of any note in life might be your obituary; your life on a few inches of paper and news print that will eventually line some birdcage in an effort to keep its occupant from soiling the floor any further? Come on, you can do better than that.  Can't you?

 An acquaintance once told me how amazed he was that his current girlfriend had had only three loves in her life.  Of course, they were the Teamsters Union, the Dallas Cowboys, and the 82nd Airborne ... I know ... it's an old joke.  But ask yourself; are you so promiscuous that you're in danger of becoming a joke?  Or, to the women you desire ... are you one already?...
 
 ... Eventually, the man whose life is adrift reaches a crossroads. He comes to understand that to find lasting happiness he must make a change.  If you're reading this and realize that your relationships are a mile wide and an inch deep, and life holds little hope or promise of finding that beautiful bride you seek, ask yourself ...

...Is it time to put your pants on and take your blinders off? ...
