March 31st, 2022

 I’m in the habit of saying the “Our Father” and a “Hail Mary” before I get out of bed in the morning.

Then I spend a couple minutes talking to my parents.

I ask my Ma to watch over you and the Shepkids and then I ask my dad for guidance and advice.
My prayers and conversation always ends with my Oldman saying…
…..”Son, don’t get your tits caught in a wringer today!”
Life is difficult… that is putting it lightly. Opportunity has a lot to do with luck sprinkled with quick decision making and more luck.
I always use the term “Silver Lining” when I’m writing to you…
Opportunities…
Should I stick with curtain number one?
Should I take the money?
What is behind curtain number two?
What ever decision you make….find the silver lining!
I had huge red flags four weeks into a relationship, but I ignored them.
Silver lining…. Shepkids!
I had a job opportunity in New Orleans that I didn’t take.
Silver Lining…. I missed Katrina and worked on the trading floor for five decades.
I took a picture of the blackboard hanging in my kitchen in August of 2017.
Silver lining…. A blog about a divorced dad and a daily therapeutic tool.
The point Einstein was making in this quote is…
…when you are in the middle of a shitshow…. Reach for the toilet paper!
The Democrats want to nominate their next presidential candidate in Chicago?
That’s gonna be a shitshow!
