I know some of you think I am crazy (and I might be) but I really do live by the belief that you have to just keep moving 1 step at a time.
Here is a PERFECT way to put it.
See I'm not the only one that thinks this way .....
one step in front of the other every day -
if we need to take one step back - its ok
so long as we don't forget to start stepping forward again!
Very true and reflection is often the path of stepping back to move forward.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of the story of the donkey. Whose owner decided he was to old, so he threw him down a well.
ReplyDeleteThe donkey protested loudly, so the owner proceeded to throw dirt in to ocver the donkey up. But the donkey used the dirt to take a step up on. Each time the owner threw down more dirt, the donkey would shake it off and STEP UP! Eventually, the donkey was able to get himself out of the hole. So when you are down, shake off the dirt and STEP UP!
Reminds me of - Always look forward, not backward, that's why God put your eyes in the front of your head.
ReplyDeleteI really like those two stories Shelley and Lisa! I guess this was definitely not too deep - thank you both for adding your stories to the thought of the day
ReplyDeleteIt just that you have to let your guard down
