I recently took a job with the San Antonio Spurs last week as a sales rep. I don’t think that it has really sunk in yet that i’m going to be working full-time, like from 7-7, monday through friday. I just get so caught up here with crazy hours and unusual schedules that I really have no idea what to expect from a real world environment, sitting at a desk working at the same place all day. Is it wrong that i’m a little nervous about all of that? I’ve worked hard, sacrificed an extra year of paying for college to get to this point, this job and i’m sort of in a “now what” stage. Thank God that I have the privledge to marry Jess this summer because that has just filled me with so much certainty and security that I can’t even describe. I really think that if I was just a single guy moving to a new city with a new job, knowing virtually no one I would freak out.
Also, nothing will fuel your determination to be a great husband more than constant interaction and bickering between your divorced parents. As hurtful it was for them to be apart for myself and mainly my mother, I feel almost ironically blessed to have that example of what sin can do to a marriage.
