Dear Reader,
Today's column is from "The Best Of." Suzanne's back from vacation, she's unpacking today and she'll be back at her desk tomorrow.
The other day I observed someone making a choice that would impact their life in a negative way and it irritated me immensely. I couldn't understand why they would make such a bad decision when the right one seemed so clear to me. Later on though, I thought about my own life and realized that I used to walk around with loose wires in my brain. And frankly, it took longer than I like to admit for me to recognize some of my own poor decisions.
I guess we all have those loose wires inside of us at some point in our lives. The times when, for some unknown reason, we just can't get-it-together. We see other people participating in this "life thing" with more ease than us and we wonder, "What's wrong with me? Why can't I get plugged in, too?"
Thankfully for most of us, those loose wires connect at some point and we take off with a new sense of the realities and possibilities of life. And we find the best part is now clearly within our reach because we've discovered the missing connection.
Thanks for reading with me. It's so good to read with friends.
