I was having a pretty normal work day. My route that morning took me to a store in Fort Lauderdale and two in Plantation. I was done and heading back to Vero Beach when I passed a car carrier as he came down a ramp onto the highway. Those carrier guys are all a little crazy, so in short order he was passing me.
He had just got into the right lane ahead of me, and a couple cars were already working on passing us, when an eagle flew up out of the median and across the left lane. As it was headed into the path of the other truck, I subconsciously chanted “no, no, no!”
Right at the last moment, the eagle jerked back over the cars, but seemed to drop something. In the
In a matter of seconds, I drove by a fish lying right on the dotted line of Florida’s Turnpike. I haven’t been a fisherman in a long time, but it was a nice looking fish, if I could make such a determination at 65 mph.
So, if you get where you’re thinking you’re having a bad day, remember my friend the fish. First, she was snatched out of some peaceful pond by an eagle, determined to eat her. Yet instead, she gets dropped onto a major highway, where she’ll bake in the sun on the crummy pavement until some car runs over her. Poor fish.

ReplyDeleteWhat an incredible moment to witness!! You know about the Eagle right, when she visits? (it so must be from spiritual indian roots (grandmother was Indian in Canada) as this stuff witnesses to me) so of course i share; :)
**When an eagle appears, you are on notice to be courageous and stretch your limits. Do not accept the status quo, but rather reach higher and become more than you believe you are capable of. Look at things from a new, higher perspective. Be patient with the present; know that the future holds possibilities that you may not yet be able to see. You are about to take flight.** and when in route; and Eagle will feed you <3
