Life on the Tracks

I was talking with an old friend of mine today, and by talking I refer to chatting via messenger, and we got to talking about how fast time really does fly when you look back on things. Several years ago, about 7 I would say that this friend and I were more or less on the same track, slightly different places on that track but on the same track non the less. It's amazing how one event or major change in a persons life can be the catalyst for changing tracks. While at first is may seem that you are simply detoured for a while and that the tracks will merge together once again. As I look back it realize I cannot see that set of tracks anymore and I vaguely remember even being on that other track sometimes, but what memories you do have of that track or very fond ones.

You never know what lies ahead of you on the tracks of life, or even what track you may be on just a few years down the road. I feel that it is important to look around you and take in the scenery that is whizzing by you. You must learn all you can from all your journeys and apply those to your life and the track on which you are presently traveling. You will never return to the exact same track you were on but you can choose to point your life's travels in the same direction. It is my hope that the tracks that my friends, family and I are traveling on will bring us happiness and fulfillment in all of our life's travels, where ever they may lead.
