Under Construction



From the moment we are born, we are under construction. Constant change, and hopefully improvement. We come to these places in our lives, and we react differently. As we do on the road. We can be impatient and unprepared for the delay. We don't want to slow down, we just see a destination and don't want anything to stop us. So, we grumble and complain. When others are there to flag us and direct us, we often choose to ignore and go in our own direction, usually leading us to more problems.
Sometimes we should look at the closed roads as blessings and the detours often lead us to places that will give us a new perspective. Even upon the uneven lanes of life, we can find balance if we steer correctly.
We need to remember the results of construction. After the mess is gone, the signs put away, we are left with a better road. Usually the road has more space and easier to travel on. So next time you sit in a place like I did today, take the time to reflect and meditate upon life....construction is a work of improvement.
