In life, we can either let our experiences make us bitter, or we can channel that feeling towards being a good example in order to improve things.

red light green light

My life involves many step ones and twos. It's like there's a green light and I go, and then a red comes on. And I'm at that red light for a long time before it turns green again. And when it turns green it's only for a short time and then it turns red. Sometimes, I feel like I'm not getting anywhere. And I start thinking that maybe I'm not meant to.

However, I still have hope. It's just wasn't meant to be then, but I don't know what's going to happen later. And so I still have a chance.

I have an interview next week. If it doesn't work out, I'm going to have to keep searching.

Yeah, I know the feeling.
Gear up, because there's always a green light coming...

Imagine if the guy in his car sees the light turn red and starts bawling, banging his head against the steering wheel, totally depressed that now he will never get where he's going...he should know there's a green light coming up, and if he doesn't he will feel mighty foolish when the light changes mere moments later!

...just a thought.

Good point, Bas~Melech!

BM, great message with some humor. I use to feel worse about it before, but recently I feel more secure that it will happen. I'm just waiting and hoping that the light stays green
