Life is such a journey. Today, I drove a good friend to Alva so that he could go to school tomorrow. Before leaving the house I was in a bitter mood. It was just the weather. I really don’t feel comfortable with the weather like this and I couldn’t understand why in the world of all days it had to be so nasty today! We loaded up and drove to Alva never going over 40... What a long boring drive that was.
Lesson: You will still get where you need to go whether you are going 40 mph or 100 mph. You might as well slow down, be careful and take in your surroundings. Going to fast you might miss a moment that you will never get back. The roads were very dangerous, ice packed, literally treacherous - but I had my father guiding the truck down the road. I respected the road, and it paid me the same respects. I never pushed my luck, never went faster then God wanted me to go, and I paid very close attention to the world around me. Autry sang me songs, Brody slept. I found out that Carlos is very afraid of bugs & that he is very passionate about giving back to others just like I am. Today, after nearly 7 hours on the road Im glad that I took the time to slow down and really enjoy what life is showing us.
