Waking up to a glorious sunrise in any new town across the USA is inspiring. Today is another one of those days.
The long journey you have been on all these years is full of hardship, yet full of faith.
“Never Forget” the Americans and true professionals that have endured our asymmetric threats and continuous vulnerabilities.
People, Processes, Systems or External events. We must continuously and “Always Be Ready”…
After all of these years of hard work, to many hours standing or waiting in airports and now seeing the finish line, or the minutes winding down on scoreboard clock.
Even just the smile this morning from a cherished loved one after hours of research and keyboard time, you know why.
Before you were old enough, the reasons for the early mornings or the significant travel did not seem worth it.
The journey was constantly in question. The competition too challenging.
"Yet in our America, most anything is possible. With hard work and dedication. With the right colleagues, coaches, mentors and instructors you too are well on your way."
You are here for a reason and all the years, days, hours and minutes devoted to your own particular journey are soon to be known.
Maybe it is that smile when she wakes up and sees you. Maybe it is that laugh when he is watching “Paw Patrol”.
Or maybe it is walking hand-in-hand with your wife or husband on another early morning in your new neighborhood, or somewhere else in the United States of America.
On this Sunday in America, say another silent prayer looking at our flag waving in the wind, while the birds are chirping and a dog is barking with a siren in the distance.
Are you going to compete today? Will you be ready?
After you make it to your own finish line, look up…
