On the 22nd December, we got on the train to London to spend some time with family and my mum also wanted to visit the London bridge so it was killing two birds with one stone… I know my Christmas would be quiet as I wasn’t in Lagos so I didn’t mind…
Boring was an understatement, 25th was as dry than anything I had known, I thought I had it all planned out but didn’t consider the train strikes as part of my plan.. story for another day..
We couldn’t get trains back to base cos they were all canceled so I had to cajole the big man to book us an Uber to our base (it was expensive) and I was grateful, this is not the story at all…😂
Our road trip back home saw us hitting the high way and ofcosssss my wondering mind started to drift.. life is like a highway, I saw trucks, sedans, jeeps, cooper, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Porsche, all types and sizes of cars heading to different locations, however we were all on the same high way at one point in time. Where there was a diversion, some cars will take it and others just kept driving ahead.
In this journey called life and in the busy highway called life we are all heading to different locations, might be on the same way at a point in time but there will be diversions, turnings and signs ahead, how well we navigate is totally dependent on us.
Now the sad thing about this journey is that you cannot just turn back, there is no allowance for that, you have to keep moving, keep driving, if you miss your way, you have to look for the nearest diversion and find your way back on course, just like life…
Life doesn’t have a Google map,you are the Google map of your life and you are driving on a highway, there are signs ahead, there are diversions and all these decisions are in your hands…
Choose wisely….
The driver started to fall asleep but that is gist for another blog … Xoxoxoxo
