Life changes in an instant. And sometimes it doesn’t.

Sometimes you get a do-over. Sometimes, you’re left with a rueful smile and a realization that you made a dumb mistake and got lucky. In fact, that probably happens most of the time.

But then there are those instants when there is no do-over, no chance to have the rueful smile, just the knowledge that “now things are different.”

I had one of those experience a couple of weeks ago, had my boat running and it got into some shallow water. Before I could cut the engine it sucked up a rock. As hard as I wished, I couldn’t undo it and have that rock not damage my engine, stop it cold.

As always, thanks for stopping by. We deeply appreciate all the thoughts and prayers.
