Oh.....The Detour's of Life! They happen to nearly all of us at one time or another...
What is the first thought that pops into your mind when you see a DETOUR sign? ....I would doubt that very many of us get excited enough to stop our vehicle and do a little jig right there in the middle of the road.....
NO...I would think that for most of us, we immediately feel a sense of anxiety or frustration...
How far out of the way will this detour take us? Will we have to go through a bad part of town? Is it going to be rough and bumpy?
These are the questions that normally cross my mind!
Have you noticed that we sometimes have unexpected LIFE detours?
Some of us may have great plans for the future. We visualize the best of the best happening to us...(After all, who wants to look into that crystal ball and see failure of any kind?)
And for some of us, we become complacent in our lives and we choose to take a detour. This is not always bad..It's actually good for our minds to have something different to think about...Sometimes we see colors that we have never seen before, or we learn that there are truly some interesting things in the world that we had not ever imagined before....
Just as we are not sure where the detour in the road is leading us, the same holds true for the detours in our lives....But, if you don't allow yourself to travel a road that has been less traveled, then you will never know WHAT other options await you....
Shug Sez......
Take the detour....It might lead you right back to the original goals you have set for yourself...The only difference is that you will have stepped out and enjoyed the view along the way.....
