Whenever an event happens that is so important to the world that it may happen only once in a person’s lifetime, American newspapers will often describe this type of event as "The (news) Story of a Lifetime!" For this blog, I have chosen this title, half in seriousness and half in jest, because this blog is about my entire life from start to finish, for the most part. In this blog I am going to reflect on my life and describe how I got to where I am today. I hope that you find this blog both entertaining and educational.
