Old skills, new skills

Where I’ve been is not where I am today. I’ve been uploading some old photos from a hard drive to the cloud. Looking over them with some nostalgia and a level of pride about how I transitioned from one life to the next. For a guy that never finished high school and was told I’d never amount to anything, I’ve done alright.
