My day was going along great until this nice (and kinda cute) KCK police officer pulled me over on I-70 on my morning commute to work. I was listening to an inspiration CD and I had just been thinking about how easy the commute to work had been this morning. Then I saw the dreaded red flashing lights. My blood pressure shot up, I was feeling very anxious, and I started to sweat. Not a good feeling. Traffic was clipping along; unfortunately, I was leading the pack. Lucky for me he gave me a warning and no ticket. The last speeding ticket I got was a couple years ago and ended up costing me $130, which was NOT in the budget. So I thanked my lucky stars, said a prayer, and continued on to work. And of course, I was now driving at the posted speed limit.
I look at my comfort zone and my lack of goal attainment as a warning. Red lights flashing and time to make some changes. Life is not a dress rehearsal folks. Time is precious and we need to take advantage of every single second. Time for me to take some chances in this game called life. You might ask yourself, where do I begin? I have made my list, but have no idea where to begin...help! Hmmm, that is a great question that will be the subject in my next blog. For now, be safe, count your blessings, and for goodness sakes drive the speed limit!!
