The Packers!

 Yes, it's cold! What's new! During summer it was hot! And with Daylight Saving's time it is dark!  So what else is new?  Every year it's the same cycle. Yes, and the Packers won, beating the Bears pretty handily! Their win last night was really new, with many stats predicting the opposite! Just like the bitter cold, what a surprise!

With all of the above, it strikes me that our spirit goes in cycles too.  I have noticed that what was an operating mode in earlier years does not quite mean the same thing in later years.  Rigidity falls way to a more broad-minded view.  Opposite ends of the spectrum move to the middle.  Black and white blends to gray. 

None of this is necessarily wrong, either.  Others have come up to me and said similar things.  I am learning, too, that "coloring outside of the lines" still paints a pretty good picture! Maybe age has something to do with it. Maybe life's trials and challenges influence things; who knows.

Waking up this morning brought a new day, a cold day, very cold.  The snowstorm earlier in the week brought icy roads, so cars slowed down.  Yes, when my sister texted and told me it is 69degrees and rainy in Florida right now I was envious however, my conversation with a desk clerk at an appointment this am would not have happened if I had been elsewhere. 

So, each of us is exactly where we're supposed to be at this very moment. I am so glad; the clerk and I hashed out a few details about the Packer game last night and I am so glad!  So chew on this post for awhile!!! I hope it just makes you smile!
