Rick's Story
Life
I am enjoying my life with my son who is without a doubt the deepest source of love and joy I have known. I work as a software developer for Symantec Corp in Orem Utah. I love what I do for work but my son is the source of most of my drive to do what I do.
I have been divorced for eight years now and have come to appreciate, even enjoy, the freedom and independence I have as a result. "It is better to dwell alone in the wilderness, than with a contentious and angry woman." -- Proverbs 21:19. I think that is a good summary. My life is great.
I only wish sometimes that I had not been so painfully shy and socially inhibitted in high school...Expand for more
. When I reflect on those years I think of so many fine people in my class I would have like to know but didn't because I just could not be open enough.
My family had just moved from Pennsylvannia before the 69/70 year, and the year before from Germany. We were always moving (my dad was in the military). It was very hard meeting people then. As an Army brat you get so used to leaving friends and never seeing them again that part of you almost doesn't want to make new friends.
But I remember some great people in our class. I'm glad I went to Pinkerton. I've seen quite a bit of the world since but New Hampshire was an enriching part of my life.
