TBM - Here is an awesome blast from the past. Four years ago, I got to drive these guys around Portland and appeared on the web show as well as in a marketing campaign for Uber. IT was a paid gig and we had a lot of fun! Boris Kodjoe and Nicole Ari Parker are good people and are fun to hang out with. One of the fun parts of my job is getting to meet people that I otherwise wouldn't have been able to. Good times!

I just had a ride with a passenger named Alejandro. We were just talking about happiness and how fleeting it is. He pointed out that in the Constitution it talks about the fact that we have a right to the "pursuit of happiness". It never says that we have a right to be happy. The fact that it uses the word "pursuit" means that there is work involved and that the pursuit of happiness is where the value is because happiness itself is temporary.

Happiness is not a worthwhile destination and either is "being happy". Happiness is the counterfeit to real joy. It looks real, but it is empty in itself. Real joy is not found in happiness, but in the willful decision to pursue it.

And we all have that power...

He said his dad always told him to pray when you go to bed that you'll wake up in the morning and then to pray in the morning to thank God for bringing you to the morning and that you can make it into a good day. He said the rest of life just follows but those are the two things you should always do.

He was mostly just talking about how happiness can come and go but it's within our power to make our circumstances either more miserable or more happy. We get to choose our actions and our reactions to circumstances. Circumstances don't define us, we get to do that.

It struck me that we feel the most powerless when we are going through hard times. And I think what we don't realize is that the moment we decide to move forward and take control back, we gain more power than we imagined was possible. But sometimes we don't get back up because we don't believe we have the power to do it. That is a lie. We always have the power and it is always within us to be able to get through hard times.

Having gone through many hard times myself, I can attest to the fact that sometimes it just doesn't seem that easy. Life can and will knock you to the ground, but the second you get back up again and start moving forward you feel a sense of empowerment. And it is always there within us. I struggle with this concept a lot but I hope that in the days to come I will learn how to be better at claiming the power that I have to make any circumstances I have to go through into good ones. I need to keep asking God for the ability to do that as He is the one that has endowed each of us with that power.

Alejandro, if you ever read this, just know that I appreciate you and your words. These are not concepts that I didn't know, but they are ones that I easily forget. Thank you for being an encouragement and a light in this world that sometimes seems so dark.

Another fun night with a fun group! Brandon and his crew hit a great Portland destination for cocktails before attending the Fear PDX attraction. Fear PDX was alright, but the ride around town was EPIC!

I had the pleasure of chauffeuring this awesome couple for their date night tonight.They enjoyed dinner at a fantastic area restaurant, took a stroll on the Vancouver waterfront, and took in the view of the whole city of Portland at the Pittock Mansion. Shane and Rowan, thank you for letting me serve you tonight! ❤️

BTW Shane... You were on fire - you scored a ton of points for treating your girl very special and of course for choosing the best ride in town 😁

I don't normally do this, but just hear me out for a few seconds... I just had a passenger. Her name is Stephanie. She just experienced the loss of her 15 year marriage tonight by finding out that her husband was cheating on her and didn't want to be with her anymore. She was devastated. Please pray for Stephanie. I want her to feel God's presence as she walks through this very difficult time. Thank you.
