It can all change in the blink of an eye.
Ask the Seattle Seahawks. Vicksburg’s own Malcolm Butler showed how you can change history in a single moment. Pete Carroll demonstrated how one bad call can bite you in the buns.
Or ask Nationwide Insurance. We’re cruising along, enjoying their heartfelt commercial and BAM! It’s depressionville. Poor Katy Perry and her landsharks couldn’t lift me out of my funk after that one. Yikes. Even the Budweiser puppy went back out to get eaten by the wolf because it made him so sad.
Yup, it all can change in the blink of an eye.
We kind of go through life big-boned, dumb and happy. And then life punches us in the mouth. It’s going to happen. But what really defines us is how we react to it. Some people blame others or even just quit. But others, well, others prove they have what it takes in life. If it is their fault, they own up to it and learn from their mistakes. If it is out of their control, they try to find the positive and use it to pick themselves back up. Heck, they even manage to lift back others. That’s how they survive being punched in the mouth.
Unless they’re in a Nationwide commercial. Then they’re toast.
