Morning Gratitude Reflection on the Bumpy Road of Life

Up extra early this morning…. solid night’s sleep after a long 7-hour drive yesterday…. so much gratitude for my body’s energy level this AM…. first activity making a cup of perfect coffee with water heated to 212 degrees, followed by a short meditation sitting in my home office and on to a few pending work projects…. quiet office, good energy level, perfect coffee…. Life is Good

I reflect, yesterday’s drive started on a steep mountain dirt road (a GPS reroute), the bumpy unpaved road, although uncomfortable to drive, had vistas of the valley, farms, and the mountain range, a very serene country setting… I must confess that we were much more comfortable when the GPS lead us onto a paved road after about 20 minutes…. well, life has put me on many bumpy roads, some with not even a view of the sky, but somehow, someway, the universe (the ultimate GPS) has always led me to smooth asphalt surfaces…. I remind myself that the bumpy roads are lessons that make my life interesting and build strength…. Namaste my friends, may the obstacles you encounter lead you to the light of a wonderful life.
