The Beginning of "The End"

Welcome to my new Blog.  I have been actively writing over the last few months on "Mr. Mercs" Blog and thought that it would be a good idea to leave "Mr. Mercs' for the cars and stuff.  That is why you are now reading the official "Jesse Padgett" blog.  

I am very excited about the lessons I have learned over the last part of my life and am more excited to explore what is next.  Therefore the first blog post on the official "Jesse Padgett" blog is titled ... The Beginning of "The End".  I have learned that in order to start something you have to end something.  My best friend said to me that I have been writing a book for 47 years ... the story of my life ... it has been one story with one theme for a very long time.  There have been ups and downs, success and failure, romance and heart break, unbelievable ups ... higher than high ... better than great ... and very dark lows ... darker than dark.  I have tried to keep my life connected and making sense ... you know, ... this event connects to this event, this cause had this effect, this investment caused this return ... when this dark time had its effect it lead to this time of tremendous enlightenment ... what I was writing was a book that had no ending and no end in sight and, before I can start writing something new, I must write the ending to the book I started.  

My commitment to being a great husband, a great dad, and what ever else I choose to accomplish in the next book I write about my life can only start when I finish the book I have been writing.  Wow, that is so simple.  I have been trying to figure out how I can merge the last book into the next book ... but, I can not do that anymore ... the story is just getting to long ... I have to write "The End".

Over the next while I will be telling stories from the book I have been writing for the past 47 years.  Stories of my adventures and accomplishments mainly ... good memories ... good stories ... this is the beginning and then I will write "The End" ... The story of how my 47 year long run at life ends ... so welcome to the official "Jesse Padgett" blog and ... The Beginning of "The End"
