A man’s shoulders are designed to do many things. For example, a football player will use his shoulders to block or tackle an opponent. And who hasn’t used his shoulders to balance a heavy load. Heavy bundles are steadied by a good, strong shoulder. We often describe a person's ability to handle a tough situation by alluding to the shoulders,"he can shoulder the burden."Yep, the shoulders are designed for many things but none more rewarding than the giggles and laughter from your own child bouncing atop a set of shoulders belonging to “Daddy.” When I viewed for the first time a little girl’s picture tribute to her daddy who died in one of the World Trade Towers on September 11, 2001, I confess I cried a river of tears. I thought about all that was and all that would not be.
I am reminded that every minute counts. Every opportunity must be seized. Time is opportunity and opportunities are ours to create memories. What memories have you created lately?
