About a month ago I was just lying on my back in the backyard, looking up at the canopy of pecan trees rustling gently in the breeze, and hearing the chatter of my kids playing in the yard somewhere nearby, and I thought to myself "Right now, at this moment, this is the happiest I've ever been."
What made that moment possible is a huge structure of events and conditions, chiefly the support and camaraderie of a loving wife and everything that has precipitated from my union with her; and all of that is contained neatly in the snapshot I have of those swaying pecan branches, the soft grass, the warm summer air.
