Open heart surgery at the age of 7 in 2017. First triathlon in 2022 and a 4th place finish today.
The anguish and fear I felt for so long over my baby boy has been replaced with a living reminder that miracles exist 💗
Someone close to me has her mood completely tied to the performance of her stock portfolio. She has had some giddy days in the past several months, but yesterday she couldn’t get out of bed with the market bleeding. Why would any tie their happiness to something they have zero control over?
I’m back home from Nashville and I have so many thoughts, but keep coming back to this from the Big Short:
"While the whole world was having a big old party, a few outsiders and weirdos saw the giant lie at the heart of the economy, and they saw it by doing something the rest of the suckers never thought to do: they looked."
Thank you to all you outsiders and weirdos who have taught me so much and made me laugh until my sides hurt. You see the lies and know it’s only a matter of time until the system breaks.
We aren’t the crazy ones; they are. 🧡
