Exhilarating TSM’s

I found this meeting quite refreshing. Ten-Second Miracles. Out of the all the TSM’s I’ve had,the most exhilarating one that readily comes to mind was about 20 years ago,(at that time I didn’t know it was a TSM).
I was visiting my mom in the country at a time when it had been raining. When it was time to leave I started studying the path back to the paved road. I wanted to ensure that I wouldn’t get stuck in the mud for my wife and 2 girls were with me. The distance from the house to the black-top was about 50 yards and there was two ruts along the path made from previous rains and about 6 inches deep. 20 feet to the right was a barbed-wire fence and another one on the left about 15 feet from the ruts.
Several feet before the gate,there’s a small patch of gravel for traction to get any momentum needed to get out of the gate. From the house the land had just enough of an upwards slope that I knew I had to maintain the right speed to make it.
At this point the Ten-Second-Miracle hit me. Stay out of the ruts and have the right speed. So off we went. Upon starting,my Datsun sedan slipped into the ruts and now moving side-ways toward the gate. By studying the path, at this point the TSM’s came instantly.
Keep moving or get stuck. My wife didn’t know what was going on, nor nature and physics. While I’m hooting and howling in delight, she’s worried we’re going to hit the fence or get stuck. There’s only one direction to go in the ruts; to the gate but side-ways.
Just before the gate I straightened out
on the small patch of gravel.
By studying the path to get out I got the Ten-Second-Miracle and when I slipped into the ruts my TSM’s came instantly one after the other to the black-top.By getting those instant-miracles,I knew exactly what to do,and I was having a ball doing it. Along the way I looked in the rear-view mirror to check on the girls. They were setting in the back seat and with a look that gave me the impression of,”Daddy’s
being goofy and mommy doesn’t like it.”
Since 2008,I been striving to get back to the way I was,the way I was meant to
be. Just as above but better than ever,
knowing as I reach that point I can accomplish anything with the same exhilaration.
