When Life Throws a Fastball

I don't often get off topic and try to keep this boxing site completly boxing oriented, but from time to time you are going to have to put up with an exception - these are my ramblings. Tonight is one of those nights, and despite this posts off topic remarks, it does have relevance to most of your lives - perhaps even a bit of motivation, so bear with me. It's almost midnight and I'm stuck in a hotel half way across the country from where I live. My flight was cancelled due to a huge snowstorm where my plane was supposed to land.
