Have you ever thought about the 'Road of Life?'
Our life is basically built up of the many roads we travel because of our choices, our circumstances and our beliefs that limit us in some way.
I was thinking about my fascination for taking pictures of Aspen trees. We go every year and I love seeing the brilliant colors when they are turning.
In many of my pictures, there will be several road pictures like the one above.
I think about the fact that I don't know what is up ahead yet because I haven't traveled there yet.
It is exciting to know that until we start going again,
I won't know what splendor awaits.
Too few of us approach life with the thought of
'what splendor awaits me just ahead?'
Many think that the road is going to be bumpy,
so it usually is.
Many think that the road will be full of mud to get stuck in,
so it usually is.
Many think that the road will have many twists and turns,
so it usually is.
Why not approach life every day with wonder?
Why not approach your troubles with thankfulness?
Why not approach your trials with a smile?
Why?
Because we get beaten down, weary and tired of the struggle.
We've all been there.
Even the most positive outlook can have cracks
underneath the surface.
With this thought - I saw this poster:
Is it really that easy to change course?
Is it really as simple as if you don't like the road you're on that it can be changed?
I will sum up my thoughts with this
written by Linda Ellis
I believe it's all in how you approach it!
I love the road
I am traveling in my life
- how about you?
