I’m headed to Ft. Worth today for a doctor’s appointment, a meeting and some errands. The girls in the office (extreme alarmists) are already talking about the sleet and bad roads just south of here. They are planning their escape to get home ahead of this weather event.

EDIT FROM ORIGINAL POST: After first writing this, I’m learning that the roads are quite a bit worse than the reports I heard earlier today.

I know many people who look at this type weather with icy roads and think nothing of it driving along as if there is not a problem in the world. Others, like those in my office, act as if the world will stop spinning on it’s axis. Then, there are the folks in the middle, giving due respect to the weather and the consequences it can produce but not about to go into “shut-down mode” as if they are paralyzed from fear of what could be.

Do you know people like this? Do you see similar situations in your work? your life? your church? Do you know which one you are? It’s a rhetorical question.
