Great Moments are Born from Great Opportunities...

31 years ago today the Miracle happened.  Yes, the Miracle on Ice was played on February 22, 1980 in the sleepy little town of Lake Placid, NY.  I remember the game like it was yesterday.  I remember the sights, the sounds and the emotion with which that game was played.

But I think what sticks with me now is the speech that Herb Brooks gave his team before the game.  Here's my favorite version...


There are so many great moments in our lives.  Birthdays, first dates, weddings, finding new friends and reuniting with old... so many moments.  And these moments sprung from opportunities.

What opportunities in your life have lead to great moments?

Mine are simple.  The opportunity to relocate from the North to Florida and find the love of my life.  Great Opportunity.  The opportunity to be part of something bigger than me, something that would change my life.  Another Great Opportunity.

Make the most of your opportunities.  Some only come around once!

Thank you to those who have become part of my Great Moments!  <3  xoxo
