A lift

After a somewhat grueling day, a “lift” would be nice – so…bring on GOLF!  Today is Tournament Day – a little golfing fun with friends & colleagues.  Always a good thing.  Particularly after a rough one (pun intended).

It’s OK to take some Play Time.  Do it.  It’ll help get you through the next onslaught.

A QUOTE TO PONDER:

Chicago Cubs great, Ernie Banks once said, “Baseball reveals character; golf exposes it.”

Something to consider – particularly when GOLF is THE DIVERSION, after all…right ?!

Ever closer…

Moving through life – and the current days of that life – we move ever closer….  To what?  Well – that is yet to be determined.  As most know, “planning” is but an exercise we undertake in hopes of an outcome.  As most know, “things” happen!  Subsequently, those plans change – regularly.  Sigh.

But – we move ever closer.  Something to golfthink.  Something to ponder.  As we move ever closer, are we on the right (cart) path…are we taking the right approach (shot)….are we lining-up (the putt) properly…?

Moving ever closer it is perhaps critical that we “keep the eye on the ball,” moving it ever so gently, and carefully – targeting as best we can.  For whatever obstacles are placed before us, we persevere – we move ever closer to….

The Weather is HERE…!

Wish YOU were BEAUTIFUL…!!!  Oh c’mon.  You know that ol’ Jimmy Buffet song.  A portion of the Chorus:  ”(Heck) nobody’s perfect would you like to play?” – well…that certainly would be a chunk of the chorus to MY Golf Ballad, if I had one.

Nobody’s Perfect, but…Would You Like to Play…?  Perfect.  Sums it right up; doesn’t it?

OH – and the weather…?! – IT IS PERFECT…!!! – at least it has been over the last week, or so.

LET’S GOLF !

Yes.  I have played a little bit, and had the opportunity to take in some BEACH TIME, as well – Jimmy Buffet would be proud.  Even had a few Pina Coladas.  (I know…he’s a margarita guy, but the rum-based frozen concoction was really good, too!)

GOLF, BEACH, PINA COLADAS…Are You Kidding Me…Does it Get Any Better Than This…?!?!

Lucky, Very Lucky.  Taking it all in.  Appreciating the (not so) Little Things.  Life IS Good.  And yes…THE WEATHER IS HERE!

Re-Load…

Well…just when you think tomorrow has dawned…another set-back.  The frustration can be overwhelming.  There were some IT technical difficulties the last couple of days – so, have to re-load.  What?  Did you golfthink the opening line was referring to GOLF…?!  Well – perhaps.

Life – as in Golf – can be frustrating; and vice versa.  In golf – you put that particular club back in the bag, pull the next club, try the next shot.  A lesson perhaps for Life.  Just grab your next club…your next tool…another resource – and try the next shot.  TAKE the next shot.

With hurricanes, and floods, and fires, and drought all around – we take another shot.  We re-load, for another day.
