Yesterday a thunderstorm blew into town in the middle of the afternoon, noisy, wet and windy. It left just as quickly as it came and everything was quiet again. My cat notified me of the storm moments before I could hear it myself and boy was it a doozy. I can hardly blame her for hiding under the covers.

Isn’t it funny how the weather can change so violently and so suddenly and then go back to normal as if nothing had happened? A lot like life, no? You can be walking along thinking everything is fine and dandy when life throws a wicked thunderstorm in your direction. But if you stand still and be patient, usually it will leave as fast as it came on.

As John A. Simone, Sr. once said: If you’re in a bad situation, don’t worry it’ll change. If you’re in a good situation, don’t worry it’ll change.

This is true, and it sure feels more comforting when you are in a bad situation! Hopefully it makes you savor the good situations a little more as well.
