My eldest son samson back to that magical kingdom for the first time in his life a trip that he called ahead of time the adventure that we've always talked about with a made me feel good that we would do in it and terrible because it was clear in talking about it for years and not been a man of action which really. Hey i don't. I don't like to talk about things and then they'll do them like this. This trip the joy of this chip truly reaffirmed think is particularly post cove. It everything we talk about in life. I might she. One of my focus is now.

It's it's the truly terrifying moment when you're about to throw a first pitch our everyone you know. He's throwing the first pitch out tries to health full and gives you suggestions on how to because as you quite hard because amount is bizarrely through it. Three anti sent me a message. So ye which is on. The mound is really through your ticks off. That's why people through wild pitches rai. It's really hard if you if you you and i play cricket.

Might you know my decisions led me to move here to the united states in the lord knows where simpson's are going to take him. It's a reminder. Had your voice in my head. David that we're all on the conveyor belt of life in the simulation generally as a conveyor belt. Is that where you are. Now you giving up the vamp life you know just like nothing. What if it does we. We have this convenient now. I think everything matters and the convertible is still very much conveyor belt every single thing about. I'm at the point right now of yet. There's no free will. And it's all a simulation mainly because it just gives me a great end to multiple conversations that people have with me about why. I'm doing something a certain way. Or why did something or what. I'm going to do in the future. It's just it's a great conversation and his There's no free will and it's all just assimilation anyway. Fifty shankar's pitch wide left. She didn't after his first. Pitch it. what. We're all just a simulation. Well they did. They just had no other way to go and do it any other way and it was. It was built into the simulation somehow So shanks beautiful. Simulation is very very good. Relation football matches simulated. It's the women's soccer tournament at olympics.

You suddenly wear it like a little kid. Wherein like grown-ups clothing. And i took it off and he just picked it up slipped on himself and it just fit in perfectly you just realize movement in life where your kids to surpass.
