Man, I'm kind of just pretty beat in general. Not utterly exhausted but definitely need a few extra hours of zzzz's tonight. Decided against editing a video and posting on my sports blog. Need to just relax for a day. I am off tomorrow, so I can blog after work. To replace a blog I did invest, move some coinage around and stuff like that. Submitted my Actifit boost function so I should also get a bigger vote in a few days. Also going to do some push-ups before I go to sleep.

Woke up just SHOOK by a picture from my big sister. She sent me a picture of my dad and pics of him are pretty rare I'd say. At least new pictures anyway. I guess she knows someone who knew my dad's ex wife or something. It's so wild because well, he's quite young in the picture. It makes sense since he died as a pretty young man. Mid thirties. I'm pushing thirty myself.

My sister said I look a lot like him which made me feel good for some reason. The photo is so cool. He looks like, about my age in it. He's sitting, not smiling, not looking unhappy either. He's just sitting at a dinner table, in a happy looking house. He's wearing a cool golden shirt too if I'm being honest LOL. He has similar stature as me and everything.

As a man, seeing the man that created you quite literally nutty to me. I could stare at that pic for ages.

I wonder if in that moment however many years ago, my dad would have known how important that picture would eventually become. That picture was probably sitting somewhere for twenty, maybe even thirty plus years. Now I am seeing it happily in 2023. I will show my son that photo. It might be my favorite of his because I kind see him as just a regular young man. It's just so cool.

Seeing the picture brings so many emotions. I feel ultimately really motivated. I am as far as I know, the only son he has. I want to make our name proud.

I thought about sharing the photo here. Maybe I will one of these days. Maybe I won't. Just enjoying it right now. Hive on folks.
