Chugging Down the Line

Some days I feel like my life is off track. I wonder why things seem to go slow for me or why I can’t seem to get any momentum. Then other days go fabulous! Life chugs along at a good pace. The biggest lesson I’ve learned from this is never to stop. Keep moving. Don’t let your engine run out of fuel, and don’t get on a sidetrack.

My husband and I took an Amtrak to Glacier Park in Montana one year. We didn’t know that the Amtrak has to sit on sidetracks several times a day to let other trains pass. The trip took much longer than anticipated and then came to a dead stop when the tracks warped because of the record heat. Sidetracks might seem fun at the time, but it slowed our progress to our destination.

Stay on track. Keep your engine fueled. Keep chugging along!
