Opinion

Listen To Life
Do you get lost?

My wife called to tell me that she was sorry, but that she’d be late. I was leaving to speak to a group and would be gone overnight. She had planned to see me off.

I asked if everything was okay. She said, “Yes, but I took a wrong turn and it’s thrown me off schedule. I knew better than to go this way.  I don’t know what I was thinking about.”
