Stations of Life


            Trains are a simple concept. They run continuously, picking up and dropping off passengers as they please. They do not stop for anyone nor do they ask questions. Those who ride on them have the free will to arrive at any destination they desire. Trains in many ways can be related to life. We begin the journey, seeing and learning new things along the way. We have the option to stop and take in what is around us, or to continue on with a further destination in mind. Those who exit few times don’t take advantage of stopping to enjoy life as it is happening. These people allow a future vision to cloud what is occurring around them. As for those who choose to get off and experience life as it is happening are living at their own pace.  These people are embracing life and not racing through it to grow up. When you look at life as a moving train we see how we have full power over how we choose to go through life. We are in control of when we slow down and when it is time to reach a destination. How we choose to carry our lives, or when we choose to get off the train is entirely up to us.
