2008 Was The Best Year Of My Life

March 25, 2009 | Filed Under Small Talk 

Most people will remember 2008 as the year the US Economy got flushed down the toilet and their 401k plans got wiped out.

Not me.   2008 was the best year of my life.   My first son was born.   The Phillies won the World Series.   Barack Obama got elected president.  And, my dad got to retire.

So, I got to celebrate the Phillies World Series victory with my new son and my retired dad, while helping to elect the first African American president (a thoughtful and seemingly wise man).

So hey, I have to admit, the economic crisis hasn’t quite hit home yet.  And I’m glad that it waited and allowed me to enjoy 2008 as the best year of my life.
