I grew up evangelical, then left religion. Went through a hardcore atheist phase for a couple years in my early 20s then leaned agnostic, believing there is something out there, something bigger and amazing.

Now having a daughter who’s 7 weeks old, I fully believe in destiny and an interconnectedness with the universe in a beautiful way. This was and is my destiny. Nothing even comes close to the feeling, or the purpose my life now has, for her but also for greatness.

I feel bad for people who can’t have kids, I do, and hope they find destiny in other things. Everyone is free to do what they want, for those who don’t want kids, but for me personally it’s hard to imagine my life had I not pursued this, as everything cosmically aligning and our greater purpose in this universe.

I’ve have friends that don’t want kids for fear of fucking them up, or for fear of our world. But what a beautiful opportunity to bring life into this world, and build them up to contribute to making this a better place.
