It
is said if March comes in like a lamb it will go out like a lion. Some years
that works – but most years we just see that March is unpredictable. Today can
be a cold-wintery-bundle-up kind of day, and tomorrow a balmy-shirt-sleeve-weather
day. Life is often just like March: unpredictable. It can remind us of the
importance of being prepared for the calm or storm. When we go out in March we
take a light jacket and a warmer coat – just in case. The same goes with
our preparedness – just in case, we can be ready for any “storm” that comes
along. The month of March boasts tales of shamrocks, leprechauns and pots of
gold. Stories tell of the
happiness in finding a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. Rainbows come with
storms. For us – our Preparedness can be our
pot of gold! As we are prepared for
life’s storms, we will find the happiness that comes with that preparedness.
When the storm comes, the rainbow will follow, and our preparedness “pot of
gold” will help us survive all the “lion” or “lamb” days of life!
