Things that shouldn’t happen…
Life seems to prepare you for certain things just in the practice of living. Included of course are events happy, sad and most often somewhere in between, the bittersweet. Life does not prepare you for tragedy however. I don’t think anything does.
Last week our family was effected by something tragic. Something that shouldn’t have happened, but something that did. Its now left for our family to pull together and figure out how to process it, deal with it and hopefully find the strength with each other and within us as a group to move on.
We often exaggerate small concerns into big issues. Hyperbole applied to work, social structures, economic issues, politics, gossip and the small issues of life in general. Some things push our reset button and make us reevaluate what is of consequence.
Life in the end is how we deal with all aspects that define it. Birth, growing up, moving on and ultimately leaving.
This week geeks converge on Austin to talk about how special everything we do is. I’m among them.
Before we do this though, I hope everyone appreciates what they have, even in the absence of it maybe being exactly what they expected. Nothing resets your perspective faster than things not going as they should.
But in the end we’re only as strong as our will to keep living forward.
My thoughts are with you and your family, bro.
My thoughts and prayers are also with you and your family.
“But in the end we’re only as strong as our will to keep living forward.”
So true…
