Thursday's Conquest

Copyright AJ Horton
Thursday's here, and for most of us the work day is over.  Now, there is just one more obstacle to conquer --FRIDAY!  I guess this log my friend is trying to lift is like Friday.  We were in Bennett's Creek, across from Merchants Mill Pond in North Carolina.  It was raining that day, but we're tough, and we were going to kayak.   This was a downed tree near our entrance and she decided it was NOT going to stop us.  She did really great and would have gone under the tree, but actually, her vest stopped her.  Not to be defeated, she tried lifting the tree.  Well, trees are heavy as you probably know, but she finally conquered and made it under and then helped me get under (I think I may have taken my vest off) and all was well.
The thing is, "Where there's a will, there's a way".  Don't know who said that first, but he/she was right.  We continued to enjoy our paddle that day even though more obstacles and more rain were in our path.  And when we finished our paddle, well there was yet another obstacle.  But that's another story.  We completed our goal for that day, I guess you could say it was our "Friday" and we made it though to the "weekend". 
No matter what obstacles Friday throws at you, you can do it.  Go under it, over it, through it - whatever you have to do to reach your goal.  Don't let anything defeat you.
Thanks for looking.  Conquer your obstacles.  See you tomorrow.
