The only constant in life is change!

I stood sideways in the mirror this morning and how surprised I was to realize life changes!!!

As I sit at my computer this morning and sip FP with some Baileys in it I contemplate how and when life changes.  Well it changes daily and how??  Well that depends on self.

I realized life changes when:

• I opened the bottom freezer and took out a precooked frozen burger for breakfast.  As I placed it in the pan I thought, "not a venison burger for sure!" LIFE CHANGES
• I checked the weather on the phone and saw Cayuga ND is 32 with snow on the ground and Naples FL is 61 with a high of 79 today.  LIFE CHANGES
• I got out of bed and walked into the bathroom.  It was not the pail upstairs with a curtain to cover the door opening!  LIFE CHANGES
• I opened my phone to see if there were any messages and then I put the phone in my POCKET!  LIFE CHANGES
• When I opened the garage door to go to the store there was NO snow but instead leaves.  LIFE CHANGES
• I got out of bed at 6:30  and NOT 3:30.  LIFE CHANGES
• I looked out the window and saw the neighbor's house about 20 feet away.  LIFE CHANGES
• I remembered that my tennis team is coming over for the end of the year party this afternoon.  I will NOT be playing Arnie, Jack and Gary in a golf match on my course this afternoon.  LIFE CHANGES
• I remembered that I need to fit in 2 PT sessions in our pool at home.  No walking up to MY lake Tewaukon for a bath today.  LIFE CHANGES
• I thought about family and as I did I thought about Salt Lake City, Mesa, Jamestown, Holiday Island and Rapid City.  LIFE CHANGES
• I thought about siblings death, spouses death and I said.  LIFE CHANGES
• I thought about playing football, playing basketball, doing track and I thought.  LIFE CHANGES
• I remembered my fancy Bentley bike in St. Paul that I so enjoyed last summer and the fact that Aaron put it together.  Then I thought about the little bike and the big bike.  LIFE CHANGES
• I thought about being on the roof of the barn wondering what was beyond my little world.  Then I thought about my tennis team and where they are from: Wisconsin, Vermont, Delaware, Michigan, New York, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Texas and more.  LIFE CHANGES
• I remembered Dad drinking boiled coffee out of a quart jar in the harvest field and then I looked at my FP.  LIFE CHANGES
• I think about Mom and Dad and how they played out in my life early and then as an adult.  LIFE CHANGES
• I actually thought about how I said, as a child, that I would buy a banana everyday when I could afford it.  Now I walk by piles of bananas in the store and don't even think about eating one.  LIFE CHANGES
• I thought about our car when I was in HS.  I was always concerned that it would break down anytime I drove it.  Actually it failed to start LATE one night in the country side so I walked to the farmers house so he would pull us to start it!!!  Our Honda wagon has taken us 115,000 miles without failure.  LIFE CHANGES

SO the point: life is ever evolving into something different, something new.  We need to embrace change as if we knew it was coming and be thankful for what God gives us.  I know, that is almost always easier said than done but it is a work in progress.  I KNEW IT, MY FP HAS CHANGED FROM A FULL CUP TO EMPTY!
