Winning the Kentucky Derby of Life

     I didn't realize it, but the Kentucky Derby is today. It's funny because even though I hadn't thought of it I find myself eager to know who wins the race.  I think I and most Americans just love to race.  Most drivers, drive like they're racing. We strive and strive and strive to get ahead and win the race of life. But as in any race we need to learn to pace ourselves.  The lives we lead at times make us feel more like sprinters then marathon runners.  I hope we all can take the time to slow down, enjoy our lives and realize that we can still be loved and appreciated, as we pace ourselves for the marathon of life.  Oh and go Seabiscuit!!!   Is that horse even racing anymore? jk
