Gratitude For Milestones
I have never run a marathon, but I have a neighbor who is an excellent marathon runner. In the past, our neighborhood has come together to support him. So, the little bit I do know comes from my interactions with this neighbor.
Within a race, there are milestones. We might also look at these as a crossroads. There are people stationed at these mileposts with water, food etc. These places can be resting points if needed and also have medical teams on hand. The stations could also be points of transportation if someone decides they want to quit the race.
There was a story I heard of a group climbing the Swiss Alps. Somewhere below the summit there was a base camp set up. This base camp was warm, comfortable with hot drinks etc. There were some people that wanted to continue to the top and others who didn’t. There was one man who got to this base camp and decided to stay because it was so comfortable. In the end, this man relates how he regretted the choice to stay and not summit.
If we’re not careful, the mileposts in our lives can become a stopping point that can produce regret.
In order to receive help we must first decide to go, to participate. As we progress along our journey we can find spiritual milestones that mark the progress we’ve made. In the middle it may seem really long, however, the closer we get to accomplishing our goals, the finish seems to come quickly.
Though the course may feel long and we may be tired, we can remember to smile, be happy and find gratitude!
