Today I ran into an old friend. It was good but it caused pensivity. I believe that we roll along okay and then we hit a bump in the road. The bump can jolt us into alertness and awaken us to new thought or it can reveal reality, the good part of reality. This bump did a little bit of both. That is what life is; a journey on a mostly smooth road with a few of those bumps thrown in to keep us awake. And as my kids would say, I am now woke.
