“Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot
of time running around shouting that he has been robbed. The fact is
that most putts don’t drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to
be just like people, most successful marriages require a high degree of
mutual toleration, and most jobs are more often dull than otherwise.
Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks,
smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by
beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank
the Lord for letting you have the ride.” ~Jenkin Lloyd Jones
This quote was read at a wedding I coordinated.
Wise words for a Sunday...or any day, for that matter!
