In an interview on Good Morning America, this week, Ryan
Ferguson told Robin Roberts he didn’t have time to look back, only to focus on getting
back on track.
You say you don’t know Ryan Ferguson?
He is a Missouri man who was released from prison this week
after spending 10 years in prison for a murder he did not commit.
Ten years. His entire 20’s. Gone.
It was significant to hear him say his family went through
more hell than he did. They fought unwaveringly for his release…dealt with all
the legal details…kept hope alive.
Prison, he explained, is just getting through one day at a
time. He worked out, kept his head up, and waited.
3650 days…one at a time.
And now Mr. Ferguson is ready to put his life back together
the same way.
I am challenged by “one day at a time.” I allow myself to
become overwhelmed by everything I see in the big picture.
How about you? Do you ever find yourself under the weight of
“everything” all at once?
Ryan Ferguson and a few other people helped kick me back in
line. We will talk more about that in the upcoming days.
For now, I am back…recommitted…ready to reach the stars and help
others do the same.
One day at a time.
We will talk again tomorrow.
