One must live life the way one drives a car. If you spend all of your time looking in the rear view mirror, you will never be prepared for what is ahead. But if you do not look back every once in awhile, you will not know if you have missed something important. Make sure that everyone in the car with you has the same destination, and accept that sometimes, you are just dropping someone off somewhere on your way. Enjoy the ride while they are with you, and wish them well when they depart. Sometimes, there is traffic and sometimes you have to take detours, but accept these as necessary obstacles that make the journey more interesting. I always figure, if I am not moving as fast as I think I should, there is probably a reason I needed to slow down. No matter what happens, eventually you reach your destination, so fill up the tank and take in the scenery.
