Fast Lane

After being caught in a traffic jam a few days ago on the expressway many drivers became restless and frustrated.

They were frustrated about two things; first they knew that they weren’t going to reach their destinations on time, and, two, there were other cars driving slow in the fast lane.

The fast lane gives cars that feel the need to go fast the opportunity to do so.

However, when there is a driver going slow in the fast lane, fast drivers don’t have any choice but to go slow.

I believe that if you don’t want to go fast, and you feel comfortable going slow, then stay in the slow lane; don’t make everyone else move slow because going slow is your preference.

If you’re the type of person that wants to be grown but can’t handle responsibilities, then you shouldn’t be in the fast lane.

Don’t try to fool people and make them think that you are fast by going in the fast lane because most individuals will be able to see right through you.

It’s okay to drive in the slow; if you aren’t sure about some things in life, stay true to yourself.

From time to time I myself drive in the slow lane.

Some men need to get out of the fast lane when they tell women that they are a good father and they have some children that have never even seen their face.

Some women need to get out of the fast lane when they claim to be good mothers but won’t invest in their children’s education but will invest in $200 Gucci shoes.

Some teens need to get out of the fast lane when they take on adult responsibilities such as having children and can’t handle them.

There are plenty of people who shouldn’t be in the fast lane who are in it every day.

However, there are also plenty of people who are in the slow lane who need to turn their signals on and adventure to the fast lane.

We can’t be scared to make progress in life.

We also just can’t stay in the slow lane because we view it as a safe place to be.

Some people are scared to have children because they aren’t where they want to be financially.

What if you aren’t ever where you want to be, are you just going to miss out on the opportunity to have children?

Some people are scared to move out of the house with mom and dad where they have been secure for their entire lives.

How will you ever start your own family when you’re still being nurtured by your own?

We all have to choose which lane we are comfortable in but we also have to choose which lane we should be in.

One for the week: Don’t let anyone choose for you which lane you should be in, stand up and make that decision on your own!
