Like most kids, I never took much time or thought on my dad’s job.  Since I can remember I’ve listened over and over again to travel stories; interactions with broken and homeless children across seas, near death experiences, witnessing the fall of terrorist leaders. But until recently I never made the connection of these stories with my dad. My dad, a goofy, seemingly shy guy who, next to family time, enjoyed more than anything simply listening to classical music with his eyes closed. As I learn more about him I can see that it isn’t just a 9-5 job. My father has such an incredible passion for what he does. I can see this inner drive that hungers for adventure. More and more I am seeing how much of me comes from him. I love my dad, and the more I come to know him the more I realize what an incredible man he is.
