So as you all know, the Good Friday theme for this year is "Enjoy Life".
This past week, with the terrible weather we've been having, many people canceled plans and opted to stay indoors instead.
Today, a friend and I had made plans to go to dinner, but after reading the weather report, those plans became tentative. At 6:00 the skies which had been blue and sunny for most of the day had turned black, and there were mutterings of an impending tornado.
I decided that the summer was way too short to let the weather spoil my plans. "Don't let it rain on our parade," I told my friend. We agreed to press on.
The result: a fantastic Australian meal at Bondi Road, plans to return for Shark Attack Sundays, and some of the friendliest waitstaff we'd ever encountered in NYC. All in all, a spectacular evening.
The Moral: Oftentimes, we let inclement weather spoil our plans and cheat ourselves out of an amazing experience. It is, after all, only water, so don't let it rain on your parade.
The show must go on...
