Life lessons: Life is like a road
For today's post, I'll be sharing again with you this life lesson in which life is like a road. In everyday of our life we passes through different roads, and highways to reached our destination, a lot of scenarios and things happenings along the road each day. Some people have met, others have felt happiness as they travel some are crying, and even someone will die as they travel. We never know what happens everyday, as we travel the road ways, everything is a risk, challenging and some are just easy and light.
As I've said, life is like a road that goes like this:
Life is like a road, where footprints can be left behind
Have you heard the lyrics of the song, "We're pilgrims on the journey of the narrow road, and those who've come before us find the way".
It's a sort of inspirational song which we sang when we have graduated in high school back then. We are all in this pilgrimage called "life", and as we walk each day, we live footprints behind. What kind of footprints can we left behind, each of us knows what it is. It is how we live, how we treat people, how we talk, and everything in relation to connecting with people wherever we go. Either in the grocery, markets, school, workplace and in our household. We may never noticed it, but each of our footprints are noticed by the road passers,what I mean are the people who walk behind us.
Footprints are the legacy that we transmit to our children, and everyone else through our life.
Life is like a road, full of device warnings
Imagine your traveling a road where there is no road signs, where you turn, and how far will you can go, exit, and entry point, go and stop signs. It's gonna be something very dangerous and risky to pass on.
As we live each day, we also have to observe a lot of warnings signs. As humans, we have the capacity to know what is right from wrong. When are still young, our parents are the one's who gave us advices, and some tips to live wisely. They even warned us to be responsible everyday, in our studies and even when we will enter into a relationship. Before, I used to complain, everytime my parents would tell me to do this and that, I even get mad if they won't allow me. And when I become a parent, I used to do the same, I keep on repeating what my kids should do, so that they will live responsibly.
The good traveler or driver will follow road signs, same as we live, we can go along in this life smoothly if we observed the do's and don't along the way.
Life is like a road, as we walk through, we meet different people who passes by.
When I used to walk the road everyday going to school, I have a chance to talk with different people. Some of them knows me already and others also are for the first time. There's no permanent at all. Just like with people. My friends before that I'm close, now,not anymore. The people I know when I was young, I didn't know where they are today. All of us are road passers, we don't stay here in this life. We just pass by it. Every encounter that we have, we talk, and have conversation with are part of this life that we should value and treasure.
Life is like a road, there's always an end
Either we travel, 1 or 2 hours, there's always a time that we reached our destinations. Even if it's too far, there's always a way that we can come to the end part.
Well, that's the reality as we always know it already. Would you think that humans are wiser, when we know what time or date or life will end?
Maybe it's possible, we won't probably waste our time, instead we will do things with sincerity at all times. Life end by surprise, which usually we don't like.
Authors end note:
The road is for all, rich or poor everybody can passed by, everyone can travel wherever they may go. Just like life, all of us have been given a chance to lived.
Whatever road of life you are traveling right now, enjoy the journey.
Life is beautiful.

True sis dapat while we are walking the path in our life we should be responsible enough to know the different signs, dapat alam natin ano ang tama o hindi. It's for our own goods also.
