Cracks.

They say the true measure of a man lies in controversy and conflict...not in comfort and convenience.

Isn't it amazing what we learn in moments of adversity? Isn't it a gift in disguise when we find out what we are made of during times when we are lost? In those moments, we have the chance to see our capability to overcome.

Sure. We have the choice to shut down and run away...sometimes that's exactly what we should do to honor ourselves and use our experience to self protect. Hmmmmm...how does Kenny Rogers put it?

"You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em, know when to walk away and know when to run."

Yeah...that's what I'm talking about.

Dare you to hold em, know when to fold em, know when to walk away and know when to run.

May we find the cracks of our souls, celebrate them and...LISTEN.

The smile is mutual, Slimmy. The path, I hope, will be crossed again.
