NMM
Watching professional sports reminds us that every player has different responsibilities. The same as true in life. I may not know what my wife packed in the kids’ suitcases for our trip, but she doesn’t have to carry those suitcases. She packs, I carry. Same team different role. Not everyone gets the game ball, but without all parts playing together, you can’t win. Play your part and enjoy the victory. Game on!

Once leading pax completed, he ran back and “swept” everyone else, wherever they were, such that we all ran back together.

1. Mountain Climbers
