Everyday when I wake up I should thank God, for not every man gets to live his dreams like I do. All I have ever wanted to do since I was a kid... I am doing it now. I know there are no real cowboys anymore, they died with the birth of concrete roads and barbed wire, but I am happy to live in their shadows. I have a few good horses and a good dog to spend my days with on the ranch. I have a wonderful wife to come home to at night who supports me and loves despite myself.  This is the life I want, free of material things and grounded to the earth. I know how lucky I am.
