Today I fly to Ontario to attend the Sei Do Kai's Annual May Long Weekend Iaido and Jodo Seminar. I was getting ready to go when I found my flight left an hour later than I thought this was a great opportunity for me to make some real breakfast.
I got the toast. I got the ham and cheese. And, I got the eggs. Toast was cooking, ham sliced, cheese grated, and the eggs were cooking in a fine flat that was nearly done and ready for flipping. Everything sounds great so far. I had the recovery tools at hand and was about to proceed with my flip...
This weekend will be an opportunity full of learning. It will give me a chance to show off what I can do, and hopefully pass the tests I am challenging. This weekend will be very stressful. Very.
The omelet was in the air, and then kaplah! into a pile on my pan. I tried to get in with the recovery tools but it was too late. Irrevocably scrambled.
A metaphor perhaps? Hmm... well, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade... or more accurately... when live gives you a beautiful pre-omelet in a pile... make scrambled eggs.
That being said. I will go to Guelph. I will take the tests. I hope to pass... but no matter what happens... I will do my best... and... I will be full... if that makes sense...
Sure... my eggs are not as I planned... but as worthwhile as ever...
Good Luck Alex
