At the Helm . . . Always
“Revelations are found in clouds.” – Serge King
Flying is one of those experiences that never gets old. As I sit thousands of feet above the ground, I find myself staring out the window, mesmerized by the ever-changing tapestry of clouds.
They swirl, stretch, and dance across the sky – some light and fleeting, others dense and towering. Watching them, I can’t help but think of the thoughts that move through our minds in much the same way. Some drift in and out, barely noticed. Others linger. But each one is unique.
Looking out at those clouds, something clicks: Life becomes simpler when we rise above the noise.
Above the surface – above the rush of traffic, the buzz of notifications, the weight of to-do lists – there’s peace. A quiet moment to breathe. A space to reflect. And most importantly, a moment to thank God for the blessings we too often overlook.
If you can see, hear, smell, touch, and taste – you already have a head start in life.
But if you also tap into your intellectual gifts – reason, intuition, memory, imagination, and perception – you’re not just living, you’re thriving.
Of course, life will never be free of challenges. But there’s peace in knowing we’re not navigating it alone. Someone greater is always at the helm.
Actually, that’s where my personal acronym was born – thousands of feet above the ground:
HSPP
Happiness. Success. Prosperity. Peace of Mind.
This isn’t a utopia. Life is imperfect, unpredictable, and often overwhelming. But in those rare and quiet moments – like this one, cruising above the clouds – I’m reminded that peace doesn’t come from perfection. It comes from presence. From faith. From letting go.
So I leave you with this:
Let go, and let God be your helmsman.
Live your journey fully, and never look back with regret.
You matter.
Bon voyage.
