Today was one of those days. You know, one of those days filled with frustrations and plenty of SMH (i.e. “Shaking My Head” for those of you that aren’t Millennials). We rented a car to drive from Atlanta to Michigan to visit family for the Thanksgiving holiday. When the trip ended and we returned the care, I discovered that our car that had been parked at the rental place had not one but TWO FLAT TIRES!!!
Fortunately the rental company had an air compressor. I started airing up my tire. I continued airing up the tire. Minutes late, I was still airing up the tire. 10 minutes later, the tire was inflated to its proper PSI. It was time for the other tire. It didn’t take as long because I stopped before it was completely inflated. Impatience was running wild. It was inflated enough to go to a gas station with free air . . . air that came out of the nozzle much quicker. I mentioned to the rental company that their air compressor was the slowest ever.

Unless you landed on earth in an UFO and hail from an alien planet, you have some issues that need solving. Let’s face it . . . we all have problems. We all are faced with hundreds of choices per day.

It seems that every high school and college student-athlete is using some form of social media almost constantly. With the advent of smart phones, it is easier now than ever before to communicate and share opinions and thoughts. With this greater opportunity comes a greater responsibility to be wise.
I heard an interview with MVP Steph Curry the other night after Game 6 of the NBA Finals, in which he made a comment that got me thinking about my pre-maritial counseling.
