“Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around shouting that he’s been robbed. The fact is that most putts don’t drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to just be people, most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration, most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. Life is like an old time rail journey…delays…sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling burst of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride.”
- Gordon B. Hinckley
So realistic and I love it. I need to be grateful for the good things in my life. Learn from the hard things. And live everyday to the fullest. I'm not doing this lately and I want to change it.
In relation to "enjoying the journey," here is a little Trace Atkins for your viewing pleasure.
Probably I love you. Read the talk Of Regrets and Resolutions. You da woman.
