The highlighted text in the attached document represents the things I imagined and wrote about in 2021 that were not yet reality, but have since become reality. Two of the biggest were writing about someday having a daughter, who wasn’t even planned yet, and owning my dream second home on the water in Malibu. In my original story, I wrote that our daughter’s name would be “Malibu.” That part obviously changed, because Mom vetoed the idea, and her real name is Adalynn. Looking back, I can admit that naming both my future home location and future daughter “Malibu” may have made things slightly confusing. Still, what matters most is this: So many of the things I once wrote down with faith, clarity, and imagination eventually became real. My hope is that this inspires you to bravely write your own story and share it with the people you love and respect. Sometimes the future begins the moment you put it into words.
