Oil Country

Sun Up - Heading for Wild West Harley in Lubbock, TX - April 5th, 2013

As my eyes flicker open each morning, my first thought is always to say "Thank you, Lord, for giving me this day." Then, "Where am I?"
I woke up this morning in oil country.
I am at the Black Diamond Inn, Seminole, Texas.

The feel, the sounds and the smells scream "Big Oil Country." An entire article is in the works on this place, and this industry.

What as eye opener yesterday as I visited with many of the locals. 

Although I did not meet one person who was originally from here. They are all here for the money.

I loved the people I met in West Texas. These are real folks, ready to help out on a moments notice.

I found that the stories that were shared with me by these Americans I met along the road, did not quite match up with what is often reported on the news.

My challenge for all of us today is this, don't be content with our current belief system. 

Go deeper. Be a sleuth for the truth.

The real truth backed by the facts is yet to be uncovered. 

These next 36 months will be exciting, eye-opening and life changing for me. Will you join me?
All of us can "Be the change we wish to see in America."

Be empowered. Be happy. And ride safe through the gauntlet of life.
