Peering through the spokes of a bicycle wheel gives you a whole new outlook on things. Suddenly life seems more doable broken down into thin slices. The daily weight of overwhelm lifts a bit. You can choose to tackle just one small slice or, if you’re feeling ambitious, maybe two or three. No more spinning your wheels trying to get everything done and accomplishing nothing. You can pedal hard or coast if you want, enjoying the scenery and the wind in your face. Who needs rose colored glasses when you can pedal through life tackling one sliver at a time?
