Living Life In The Fast Lane
Life is full of twists and turns. With moving detours and hard stops, sometimes you don’t know which path to take. This can be a good thing. If you always knew what would happen, how can you appreciate everything that you have or the people in your lives? It is about the journey and the experience. When you hit the road, always be prepared and fasten your seatbelt.
Traffic Jams
Taking each day as it comes, seems pretty simple. In theory, this sounds very straightforward. However, life has a way of changing directions on us very quickly. From one moment to the next, you don’t know what traffic jams you will face. All things are moving steadily, and then in an instant everything shifts. These sudden signals are sometimes a way to remind you that you are not in control of everything. There will be things that you do not understand and lessons to be learned before proceeding. On the road of life, there will be bumps on the road; this is a part of a bigger picture to move you towards reaching your goals.
Stop Lights
It is easy to feel discouraged when life doesn’t go the way you expect. It can be very frustrating and confusing when it appears that nothing is moving and you are sitting at a “STOP” light. You make all sorts of plans, but very often this is the plan. Learning to “go with the flow” and “be still” is challenging, when you are trying to be productive and get from point A to B. Action must be taken to achieve all that you want in life and it seems like there is no time to slow down. This “holding pattern” doesn’t mean that your life is on hold forever, you may just need to slow down temporarily and wait for something better. One thing that we don’t often consider is we may not be ready for everything that we are chasing. You may need to learn a few more things or grow a bit more to move ahead. Timing is everything. So, slowing down is not a permanent situation. Also, it doesn’t mean that your dreams will never happen; you just need to stop and follow instructions.
Living Life In The Fast Lane
There is light at the end of the tunnel. It may not feel like it at times. When you are constantly struggling and trying to succeed, it may seem like there is no way out. Life forces us to evaluate our situations and provides signs when we are off course. It may be uncomfortable at first, but things will eventually work out. The beautiful thing about striving for your dreams, is although it may not come the way you’ve imagined, you can experience something even better. You don’t always have to move in the fast lane to reach your destination. You will arrive at the right place, at the right time. Take some time to enjoy the ride.
