Life goes to fast!

Sitting here thinking about the great times that I have had with friends and family really is a great thing! Like the times my grandfather took me fishing just so we could have a great talk about life. Most of the times it was just about life lessons that he learned and wanted to pass on to me. For me it really didn’t matter about what he was saying as much as I got to go fishing with him I thought. But know I can look back and see that those talks that I miss so much were so much more. They have made me the man I am today. A caring good person who spent most of my time as a vol. firefighter and emt. Don’t get me wrong that you have to volunteer to be a good person but I believe you need to get involved in stuff in order to have a say in life.

I have done my best to pass all this on to my son and I hope in someway he understands the importance of these lessons. I will always cherish the time I spend with him fishing, playing video games or just hanging out. Like most kids when you talk to them sometimes they roll there eyes like OK whatever and probably say something like I hope I don’t do this to my kids. But he will because I know I thought the same thing! You can only do your best and hope that they make the best choices in life that they can! The thought of him going to college is scaring the hell out of me. But a life lesson he will have to make.

With that said I wonder about the way some older kids act today. Is it the way that they were brought up? Maybe the environment they grew up in? Or maybe they are just that way. I have noticed that the young kids that are getting about 15 or 16 years old seem much more respectful than the ones a little older then them. I hope this trend keeps going because disrespect is something that I can’t stand.

I would love to hear your opinion or thoughts about mine. If you want to leave it as a comment that is fine. Or you can email it to me at reelandsteel.com@gmail.com.

Also if you have a story that you would like to share as a guest blogger or pics you would like to post on the website email them to me also.

Have a great day all and enjoy your days in the outdoors!

Go Cowboys!
