Whether it’s a snowstorm or a Texas heatwave, life’s forecast often ignores our preferences — but peace begins when we learn to dance with what is.
Some northern friends text me photos of their first snowfall. The photos were beautiful. That’s the way I like to enjoy winter, looking at photos of winter storms and winter sceneries from my south Texas home. We don’t have much snow down here, if any. I know people who can’t stand the heat and would never move to south Texas. The tacos don’t tempt them, nor do burritos or brisket. Wherever we are we have to learn to adapt to the weather or be unhappy. It certain that the weather doesn’t care about our likes or dislikes. It just is. That’s a good life lesson it teaches us: adapt to what is. Improve it if you can. If you can’t improve it learn to dance with it and enjoy each moment.
What’s one “weather” in your life you’ve learned to adapt to — something you couldn’t change, but learned to appreciate?
