Roll With It

We’re going to have a really lovely, warm day today. And… it’s going to snow tomorrow.

Such is March in Michigan.

We’re in that time of year when the temperatures and conditions vacillate, so there’s an opportunity to roll with it and maximize what you can maximize on all sides of those conditions. Need to get outside with some sunshine and shed a coat? Great, make sure you don’t miss what’s possible on this day. Need a cozy day indoors to finish chores you want to do? Great, make sure you don’t miss what’s possible tomorrow.

And I suppose that’s a good metaphor for life too. Sometimes, we have to look at the conditions and maximize what we and others need based on what’s possible in the moment. No need to concretize those conditions or their limitations. They offer certain possibilities, and then, in many situations, they’re going to shift. We can roll with it and maximize what we can.

I wore shorts on Saturday. My brain has this thing where once I wear shorts for the first time, any additional cold weather is seen as a personal insult. It’s going to be a long week. 😀
