“Irony is God’s way of reminding us who’s really in charge.”      ~ Kimberlie Dykeman

Very few things can smack you upside the head in such a way that you let out an involuntary cartoon-like sound as your little brain rattles to find its balance again.  Being on the God Squad, I KNOW I ain’t the captain… yet I can recall plenty of times when I thought I was at the helm, egotistically assuming the turns in the road.  And then…SHAZAM!

Invariably, I try to figure out the “how” and “why”- even piss and moan a bit- but eventually surrender to the truth.  I mean, that’s really the only peaceful play for any of us.  Right?  After all, who’s to say that the thing that happened or didn’t happen was the perfect gamechanger, wake-up call or seed to be sown that you never could have choreographed, let alone anticipated.  Gotta love that.  Indeed, life is not meant to be dissected, like a butterfly on the wheel…it is to simply be lived.
