On this last day of February we had another winter storm. It was brief but intense. Ice pellets, blowing snow, terrible visibility, slippery road conditions, police warning people to stay off the roads, the full deal. It lasted about four or five hours. Now it is still again.
That storm is a little bit like our life. We'll go along with our life and then wham, something will hit us full force and we'll have to really deal with it, if we are to survive. Then things will quiet down again and we get to put things back into place, literally and figuratively.
It is our job to sail through the storms we are presented with in our lives, and accept them. Even more than accept them, laugh along with them. Embrace them. Celebrate them. It's our life after all, so why not celebrate?
This is when I talk about being an optimist. Did I mention that before? I am an eternal optimist. That is how I get through the challenging days. Try it yourself. You might be surprised at how much it helps :)
