Our journey can take many forms and as we progress we find that the journey in and of itself is rich and rewarding. And when we look around we, not coincidently, see other journey’s going on at the same time as ours. The boys of the Tour de France, for example are riding for three weeks to crown a champion. Their journey executed every day with eight riders on each team with many of whom will turn their journey into a race where they are sacrificing themselves to keep their leader protected and escorted to the finish line. The riders put out a lot of energy, in relative obscurity to get it done for their teammate. It is a metaphor for life when we step back and think about it. We all have the opportunity to be the supporter for others and when we do this we extract a better outcome for all involved. So, let’s take a lesson from the domestiques of the Tour, good hard work brings good outcomes, for us and more than anything for others for whom we are supporting.

Loving life when I am supporting others
