Driving This Life....

You know those times in life where you can’t help but smile? This is one of them. We as humans are so capable of astounding things, the stories of our lives can literally change the course of someone’s life, so much so they can keep someone form the brink of death. I just want to scream right now because I’m so full of emotions I cannot express ( I’m not sure why or how to express them but I do know they are there) but somehow I have to get them out. Funny how life moves on people faster than others. Just tonight I witnessed life moving in the fast lane of another, who was able to grasp hold of their life and put it into action, following what the Lord had for their life. Is my life actually moving slower, I would say no, only for the fact that there are so many different roads to travel down. But what happens when your heart is connected with someone in a different lane moving faster then yours? Your heart breaks. It’s really that simple, you can do something about it, though you can try and drive faster, breaking out of your lane and being thrust into a world so different than your own. Then you are caught in a paradox of being able to adapt and survive in this new lane which you so desperately want to be apart of, and leaving what you know you are called to be a part of behind. Both will suffice, each with their own benefits, but what is most dangerous is driving on the median. You need to pick a lane, don’t wonder in the middle because before long those lanes will move apart in drastic ways. You need to let go, or put the pedal down. Don’t worry you still have your car phone, but it is integral that you pick. Don’t be like me.
