Pull Your Wagon
The Little Lady offers so many lessons. Almost two now (just a
couple days), she went for a ride with her 14-month old cousin
in a wagon. We adults took turns pulling . . . until Little Lady
decided that SHE wanted to pull. And once she got her hands on
the handle, pity the adult foolish enough to try to relieve her
of her responsibilities!
Was it easy for her to pull the heavy and bulky wagon? No. Did
she stop after a minute? No. Five minutes? No. Ten minutes? No.
It was almost as if she knew this was a test of character and
she wanted to get an A+
As adults, we face daily choices: take the easy way out and just
go along for the ride, or do the best we can do and be the best
we can be. I am sure every one of us chooses both options
several times a day. Let's be conscious of those decisions
today.
