G-Force! G-Force! G-Force!

(For those of you who don’t know, G-Force is the fans in the stands at Lambeau Field. We come in handy on 3rd downs! Tomorrow is a big game for us! The Bears have played a great season, so it could be tough. But we’re favored to win by about 10 points. This could be because of the fact that we’re expecting them not to play their first string. We’re hungry for the playoff spot and just came off of a big win against the Giants too. But the Bears may still give us a run for our money. Either way, it’ll be an interesting day! I’m super excited! I love coming up here and spending time with my family! It’s also going to be a cold one, so I’ll be bundled up! Everyone keep warm, and good luck! It’s bound to be a good game, a long day, and full of fun! And I really hope it includes a W for the Pack, too!)

I had a rather treacherous journey back to DeKalb at 45 miles per hour, getting slush splashed over me as anxious semi trucks and cars passed me, putting like a granny. For a rather lengthy period of time on 88, one driver decided to snuggly sit his or her front bumper onto my rear end. He or she may or may not have been roughly a car length behind, but I felt like he or she was breathing down my automotive neck. Despite his or her lack of consideration for the wintery conditions and the overall safety of our small vehicular wolf pack, I refused to be bullied and intimidated. I stubbornly stayed at 45 miles per hour, sometimes less, as I felt comfortable, safe, content, and as happy as I could be with headlights blinding me in all my mirrors and snow whirling and freewheeling into my windshield. 

A gal of analogies, I can’t help but apply this to my life. I won’t give in to bullies, nor will I sacrifice my safety or happiness for the stubbornness and carelessness of others. I will also never give up on something or someone I love. I have my limits, as 45 miles per hour was mine this evening. I will let others cling to my bumper for only so long. I may speed up a fraction to appease them or slow down to establish my intentions, but in the end, I will continue my journey with myself as the top priority. I do what I do to make me happy. Sometimes, making others happy is what does it. Sometimes, fighting for a rather seemingly obvious lost cause does it. My trail to happiness, my journey, is going to be covered in slush and tears some seasons; others it will be a much smoother and safer ride. I’m going to stay on it though. Can I handle the seasons of my life? Yes. I can, and I will.  Surrounding myself with who I deem worthy and necessary is my choice. It makes my life worth something. It makes me happy. It makes me feel alive. I am alive, and that is the best that I can do.
