Yep. I didn't feel this way for a long time, then realised it was because I was married to the wrong woman. She was heavily influencing the sort of man I was outwardly portraying, and it always felt like I was wearing a badly-made suit.
After the end of that marriage, I met my soul mate, and now have two wonderful stepkids and an incredible daughter. We've now been together for a little over 11 years, and I'm still amazed at how lucky I am. My family gives me purpose and meaning, every day.
After that, nothing else matters.
