Try to learn life's bad lessons vicariously through others.

That photo perfectly encompasses the unsurmountable fear and happiness that comes with child birth. Truly a life changing experience. Props to all fathers.

Much of my time during the job is spent hauling things up and down the stairs to the basement or in and out of the storage shed, or running back downstairs when I realize I need something else,or taking a break from standing out in the sun,or using flashlights or work lamps when it gets dark.

I couldn't have said it better.

I get the same look/feeling after I think I fixed my Volvo and I'm getting ready to test drive it to see if it's actually fixed or not.

Since I'll never be a father, that's as close to that look/feeling that I'll ever get. :)

Well put, very well put. I was on a dopamine high for a good two months, and after that, simply very happy.

Every time you role model your life for a child, you are a Father. The most important task in life
