At birth we board a train and meet our parents. We believe
they will always travel by our side. However, at some station, our parents will
step down from the train, leaving us on this journey alone.
As time goes by, other people will board the train, and
they will be significant - siblings, friends, the love of your life, children,
and many others. Some will step down and leave a permanent vacuum. Others will
go so unnoticed that we won't realize they vacated their seats.
The train ride will be full of joy, sorrow, fantasy,
expectations, hellos, good-byes, and farewells. A successful ride requires
having a good relationship with all passengers. We must give the best of
ourselves.
The mystery to everyone is, we do not know at which
station we ourselves will step down. So, we must live in the best way, love,
forgive, and offer the best of who we are. It is important to do this because
when the time comes for us to step down and leave our seat empty we should
leave behind beautiful memories for those who will continue to travel on the
train of life.
I wish you a joyful journey on the train of life. Reap
success and give lots of love. More importantly, thank God for the journey.
Lastly, I thank you for being one of the passengers on my
train.
