The age of Aquarius

Today the sun came up in the East but it shone its light on a very different landscape.

I recently had my last day in a career field that I loved deeply, law enforcement. It was a very painful day for me with many tears shed. However, I know that this new dawn brings many things; being a full time student, a stay at home pit bull/kitty dad, a husband, and pursuing a new career in medicine.

When I walked out the door of the police station for the last time I didn't become a different person but I did embody a new purpose. I now solely desire that I am a good man for my wife, a good father for my children (when they come along), a good athlete (at least what I can muster with a disabled body), and a good physician (no matter what that role may end up meaning, in private practice or public health).

So there you have it, a new man is born.

May the gods of Step 1, bio chemistry, anatomy, and The Residency Match bless me and be with me through this new journey.

Oh yeah, I'm a Virgo now. So there is THAT....

Like I needed one more thing that makes me more androgynous.
