Yesterday I told you about my ride, and the ride, and one of my first meditations reference the metaphor between riding and life.

Today I want to share another one.

Some days, like the ride I took this past Sunday, the ride is beautiful.

The weather is perfect.

The experience is magical.

Other days, you get stuck in the rain, soaked and can’t wait to get home.

We can’t control the weather (though my wife would remind me you can check weather channel).

The point of the story, though, is this.

I am grateful for the beautiful days.

I am also grateful for the rainy days…

on those days, I am grateful that I get home safely, for a warm shower and a warm house, a hot meal and a loving wife waiting for me.

It’s just like the ride of life.

We can’t control all of the circumstances day to day there either.

But we can control our reaction- and there is always something to be grateful for.

Prepare To Live; Empower To Lead!
