Ever have one of those days where you don't feel like you can do
what you need to do? You get up and say to yourself, "How am I going to
make it through this day?" But you remember what is important to you.
You remember what you were going to do that day before you knew you
wouldn't be feeling your best. And then you go into that mode where you
go about getting things done, and you "forget" you were feeling anything
but your best in the first place. Instead of feeling under the weather,
you end up feeling great about what you accomplished that day.
Those can be some of our best days. When we find it in ourselves to
make things happen without being at our best, that's when our character
grows. Helen Keller, no stranger to adversity, once said, "Character
cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial
and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and
success achieved." It is a great feeling to have given your all
when you didn't know you had your all to give. And for me, the
opportunity to serve you folks is what drives me to do that.
Today, let's find that place inside us that drives us forward when
something else is trying to hold us back. Let's be above the weather.
