Through The Windshield


"Look at life through the windshield, not the rear-view mirror."
Byrd Baggett

When we back the car up, there is discomfort twisting in the seat, the neck is strained, and our foot may fall off the pedal. We have much less control when we are stuck in reverse. Moving forward with hands on the wheel is a powerful sensation. Perhaps it is time to honk the horn while yelling, "Look out! Here I come!" 

If uncertain of our destination, we engage with technology to lead us on our way. We do not stay at home when the point of arrival is unclear. If our sense of direction falters, we seek out guidance to clear the view. If careless in our approach, we may get dented scraped or harmed in some other way. 

The sadness or anger we feel is temporary. Disgruntled emotions are teaching us a lesson, not meaning to stay. We learn and move on. We stop at stop signs and accelerate on highways. If we view life through the windshield and embrace the sun. the road opens leading to safe and sacred spaces.
