Traveling through life is like traveling down the highway. If you have a destination and believe where you are going you will aways find your way. Many stretches of life’s trip are uneventful, as you travel through school and work toward your dreams.
You will pass uneventful scenery, you will pass woods, fields with crops, and the occasional stop or rest area. Life is like that, you will have many experiences, going out with friends, experiencing the thrill of skiing downhill, going on that first date and kiss.
You will come upon intermediate destinations. Ours was a Stop at the Port Byron Service area, then on to Sharon Springs, which was four hours from Buffalo. Travel along the Thruway and then on the side road was an experience. The side road was very curvy and had signs telling us to watch out for cows crossing, there were abandoned building and well-kept farms.
When we got to Sharon Springs we found it was a place where we could have stopped our journey and lived a very peaceful life, but that was not our ultimate goal. We got back on our trip with a goal of getting to Boston, MA. Life is like that, you will experience pleasurable side trips, rest stops under construction and those that are welcoming you.
Your life and career is like our road trip, lots of smooth passage, some restaurants to visit and some rest areas are closed, others open. Areas under construction. Each a destination you can stop at and not or move on and keep going.
The weather may be sunny or cloudy, it could even be rainy. Life is like that. Emotions come into play as you move on in life and at times you feel beat down. If you have a goal where you are heading then you can move past all the diversions, it doesn’t mean you don’t acknowledge them and maybe reminisces about them, but that is not your goal.
You always need a goal as to where you are going for it provides you with your destination.
