Black ice is kind of like life. Black ice can happen to anyone and just like life it does not discriminate. Black ice can cause you to fall in an instant and there is no way to stop it. When you suspect black ice ahead you should be cautious, but strive to reach your destination. Just like in life when we fall, we have to stand back up and give it another try. Everyone has their good days and their bad days. Life is what you make of it.
As we made our way to the garage this morning both the pumpkin and the princess got to experience black ice firsthand. One moment standing, the next moment arms are waving through the air trying to grasp something anything, then finish with landing on the little pootie. In little ones this usually elicits tears, but I had a tendency to laugh. It may sound strange, but you really have two choices once you fall and the same true with life. You can either laugh or you can cry. I usually choose to laugh.
