Twenty Years

Twenty years is a long time.

It shows dedication.

It shows passion.

Especially when it has to do with your job.


My dad sent me this a couple of days ago--doesn't he look handsome? In the picture above, is Chief Kunkle handing my dad his 20-year certificate.

It makes me wonder where I'll be in 20 years. And what life will bring me in the next 20 years.

 I don't even remember 20 years worth of life yet! And one day, I'll look back and think, "Man, that was 20 years ago!"

Ok, maybe that's not entirely true. I do have memories from breaking my arm at age 2. But those flashes of memory are based on trauma. One day I'll have 20-year-old happy memories.

Crazy.

Unfortunately, I have memories from 20 years ago! I'm so old!!! Ugh!!!!! But that's a cool picture of Dad. I don't even have it. Well, I do now. Congrats, dad on 20 years on the force. Well, 21 actually. Love you!

Congratulations to your Dad!
The 20 year increments go by faster the older we get...not sure why that is.
