Journeys

Life is a journey. There are highways and country roads, flying and more leisurely travel like a scenic train. You can stop at rest areas for a picnic or you breeze through the drive throughs. You can rush and rush and still not get there on time. And when you are in a hurry, you can be sure that you'll get behind a slow-poke. But along the way, it's up to you if you enjoy the journey, or just rush to the next big city.

Which journey are you taking?

Me, well, sometimes I feel like I'm stuck on a two-lane and everyone else is running up & down the interstates. Other times, I'm so thankful I'm in the slow lane, enjoying life as it comes - even when I take a few detours and wrong turns.

I'm at my Mom's in Ashdown - taking off for a few days of R&R, shopping, and Mom-time. It's good to get away, and I can just hope that my house hasn't floated away. Calvin & I make good friends but that's about all for now. It's one of the roads you travel, and decide that while it's a great drive, it's not the route you want to take. I've been on the road several times, and each time the scenery is beautiful and I learn alot along the way. I've never regretted those roads because they are good trips in life's journey.

Hope you enjoy your journey this week-end.
