~:[CH5 - Day 126]: ~ An Impending Storm
It was getting dark and you could almost feel a storm coming our way. Yes, it was a storm coming and while there was a lot to celebrate today, you could feel it coming. It was Children's day, Cinco de Mayo and also the birthday of two of my cousins, yet my cold and the laundry list of things to do made it a challenge to celebrate. The gloom showed overhead as the day dragged on. However, even with the challenges faced, good spirit can sometimes trump the impending storm. I felt energized after practice despite my cold, as my athletes seemed ready despite their bumps and bruises. My head and throat cleared a little as the tea from TapEx and the soup from Sweetee Thai soothed my soul. Then a nap helped my body rest and all weight was lifted from my shoulders as I finished up the last of the paperwork for tomorrow's league finals. I ended the night with solidifying my trip to HK and also hearing good news for my Asia trip this summer. Yes, there is a storm coming, however, regardless of the challenges that we will face because of it, we have done what is necessary to counter it so that it cannot bring us down. Much like any storm in life, what you do in preparation, can help make even the most hopeless of situations a positive one.
