I love this picture. It's a friend of mine in Calgary, who is also a real estate agent. It evokes so many thoughts and feelings for me and reminds me of why we keep doing all the things we do.
For the big kid, dad is a hammock. For the little guy, dad is a pillow, a tower of stability and the only thing keeping him from a hard fall. And dad?? Who knows what he's thinking?
My guess is that life is just as hard for him as for any of the rest of us. I don't know anyone that gets a free pass. Business can be a grind (and rewarding). Marriage can be tough (and fulfilling). Kids can drive you crazy (and melt your heart). Our days are a full range of experiences and our lives really are a wonderful adventure.
But in this photo, it looks like all three people are totally content to be spending this moment in just exactly this way. I love that.
This is it! This is the "why".
