Lone Star hospitality. The Wyndham Riverside Suites Resort was the perfect place to just kick back for three weeks and continue our bounce back from our run in with Covid 19.
Our time in this wonderful southwestern city was spent relaxing on the edge of the meandering river walk. Short walks on it's paved, garden like trek, helped return strength and energy to a tired body.
This has become one of our favorite winter time stops. Now it's off in the morning to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina with her nearly empty beaches.
REFLECTIONS
They glided by every evening, these magical horse drawn carriages, as they carried their passengers through old San Antonio. I watched them, from my condo balcony, as they circled their routes time and time again. The indentation cut in the pavement by the hooves served as testimony to the sameness of their daily journeys.
It sounds a little like life. Life is journey. Round and round it goes. Day melts into day; a 24 hour circle. For the most part it is a journey of sameness. We end up in a rut. It is a rut of our own making.
It can be a destructive rut or a constructive rut. We go round and round carrying several passengers behind us. They are primarily people we love. They travel with us or observe us from a distance. The question may be..... "If they follow the ruts of our life, where will it lead them?"
There is a song that implores "May those who come behind you find you faithful." So keep on moving, knowing that our routine lives can, like horse drawn carriages, bring joy and happiness to those who join us for the ride.
