Murphy’s Law |
| |
Life’s pathway is often less than predictable. It can sometimes change in an instant, without warning. Whatever you had planned to do is subjected to one of Murphy’s Laws (I often wonder what life was like for Murphy anyway, must’ve been rough), and you end up doing something entirely different than what was on the schedule, in a completely different location. Sometimes you get a load of lemons, and the best thing you can do in that case is make lemonade.
Just such a thing happened to me recently while on vacation in search of mass quantities of bluegill filets. It’s been an October tradition for as long as I can remember and it is the time of year when the freezer gets filled back up with the makings for another year’s worth of fish fries. No one can turn down a crispy bluegill filet, at least no one I care to know anyway. So we were only part way through the “harvest”, as The Queen calls it, when business called me away on a critical mission. Murphy’s 3rd Law says that whatever it is you want to do, there is always something else that needs to be done first. Thanks Murph.
