Life


 I had the wonderful opportunity to play golf yesterday with my son.  It is the greatest game in the world.  Everything else is played on the same field or court.  Golf is TOTALLY different.  The ball may end up on an up slope or down, in a trap, in the woods, on pine straw, dirt, or the type of grass you are playing on can make a difference along with the grain of it,......and every hole is different.  It is up to us to pick the club, adjust for distance/wind/elevation..., and trust.  No apprehension or room for doubt.  Confidence.  And it matters who you are playing with!  You hit that ball in the next lake that is curved around the hole, you want that person that gives you a "mulligan"


Life is the same.  We don't know exactly what we are dealing with until we get to our ball.  Take your time, adjust with the elements, and hit that shot.  Some do not go as if we set up to hit, but the perfect shot keeps you coming back to hit another shot.  Keep taking shots.  The shots that flow like butter are the ones you remember and can take with you for the next shot.  The bad ones.....you have to eliminate from your mind to play the next hole.


Play the next hole with the feeling of bliss on that shot that hugged the hole within 2 feet, the putt you sunk from 20 feet, or the drive you crushed 350 yards nailed down the center.  Whip out the good in your quest to tackle the course.  Your round will be better by a gazillion strokes.  Your mindset dictates your score in golf and life.


Lets focus on the good, and FEEL it in the next shot.


Love you all
