runway

Life
Is like a runway
Long
With lots of hurdles
But eventually
It will come to an end

Driving on the highway allows me to have plenty of time to think, and to reminiscence.

When you feel that you are slow, you just need to step on the paddle, the car will accelerate.
And when you feel that it is too fast, similarly, you just need to step on another paddle, the car will decelerate.

How i wish that life could be that simple, that everything in life is within our control.

Unlike driving, we can't control the rate of our life. how fast things are. or how slow things are.

And unlike highway, there isn't any signboard along the route of life directing us to the destination we want. And most of the time, there isn't U-turn in life. once u have made you decision, you will have to stick with the consequences regardless whether you want it or not. This is life.

A friend once told me, he does something because he wants, he cares and he can. that is definitely an ideal situation . but sadly, that is not the case for me, many of times, i do something not because i want to, it is because i have to or because i am obliged to. this is life. this is my life.
