I had an SOA moment today.... Something happens at around 92 miles an hour - thunder-headers drown out all sound, engine vibrations travels at a hearts rate, field of vision funnels into the immediate and suddenly youre not on the road, youre in it. A part of it. Traffic, scenery, cops - just cardboard cutouts blowing over as you past. Sometimes I forget the rush of that. Thats why I love these long runs. All your problems, all the noise, gone. Nothing else to worry about except whats right in front of you. Maybe thats the lesson for me today, to hold on to these simple moments. Appreciate them a little more - theres not many of them left. I dont ever want that for you. Finding things that make you happy shouldnt be so hard. I know youll face pain, suffering, hard choices, but you cant let the weight of it choke the joy out of your life. No matter what, you have to find the things that love you. Run to them. Theres an old saying, That what doesnt kill you, makes you stronger I dont believe that. I think the things that try to kill you make you angry and sad. Strength comes from the good things - your family, your friends, the satisfaction of hard work. Those are the things thatll keep you whole. Those are the things to hold on to when youre broken.
