Red Light Green Light.

I recently came to the conclusion that rushing through life busily working and worrying is just pointless. It's like those little red cars that rev up their engines, vroom vrooooooom.... all loud and obnoxious like they are going somewhere really cool and important. 5 minutes later they are stopped quietly at the RED LIGHT next to you. You think the driver has learned a lesson, but sure enough, when the light turns green they are off again! Racing themselves to the next red light.

In life, we have the same choice... we can drive the speed limit (occasionally a little over). We can take time to observe our surroundings and notice new things along the journey. We can be smart about risks. OR We can cling to our flashy lifestyle and speed past everyone and everything in our way.

For those who choose to throw caution to the wind, remember that in the end you are racing to the same red light... Life has a way of slowing us down involuntarily for a pause here and there. We are all human and our resources are limited. If we constantly push it to the limit and refuse to take breaks, WE. WILL. CRASH!
