thursday afternoon trainwrecks

I worry about a lot of little things. About whether I'm going to get to work on a particular project. About what I will be doing this weekend. About whether or not I have time to make it to my evening ice hockey games on Monday.

I realized today that all my worrying is futile.

The real problems in life are the trainwrecks that blindside you on a Thursday afternoon--the ones that you never expect and the ones that never cross your mind.

And how you emerge from those trainwrecks is what really defines who you are.
