I attended a wedding last nite. The setting was gorgeous! A beautiful yard, that of the brides parents. Every flower blooming! Canopies with sheers all around beautifully decorated inside. The osprey flew above and the pond was spotless. And then came the wind. At first glance the clouds looked very threatening. The Canopies were clinging to the poles, sheers gone. The bridal party came out one at a time and then the beautiful bride. She was as beautiful as any bride could be. And of course a handsome groom. The ceremony was short and to the point.
More photos were taken near the pond and the reception began. All of a sudden the wind stopped. The clouds cleared. It could not have been better weather for the reception.
That's how it is in our day to day lives. Sometimes the best of plans become temporarily foiled. But the next day comes, and whether we are prepared or not, we must live it as it is. At this point we have a choice to live it well, or live it in misery from the past. You only have today.
