Those Narrow Alleys
We used to [wrongly] think and believe that we can LIVE LIFE on the FAST LANE. That we could go full throttle. That we could max things out. That there will be no slow-downs. That you can get things in a snap of a finger versus waiting for it in eternity. But alas, that is more of a fairy tale than anything else. In life, there are Those Narrow Alleys where we can't live without, where we need to wiggle out🔋
It's true, a big chunk of our time we would find ourselves traversing highways and freeways, enough for us to go for a full throttle. Those are the times when we can drive FAST and FUROUS but even across inter-state highways, at some point, you got to slow down as you take exit points. And farther down, you could be traversing a 2-way 2-lane road and much farther down, you could end in decrepit roads📌Two months back when I took a break from work, initially I was driving at full throttle for roughly eight to ten hours only to screech to a halt when I had to wiggle my car out of congested towns in the countryside. Swinging back to our life. that's exactly how it goes. You CANNOT go a free-wheeling life year-round. Quite a few times, you got to pull the brakes and slow down your drive💤 So, how do we handle life once you're constrained to slow down because you got to cut across those narrow alleys? Those are the times when you CAN'T be too impulsive or just too random to come up to decisions. On the other hand, those are the times when you have to be very calculating, very near-precise, very circumspect, cautious, guarded and contriving if you have to. WHY? It's because those narrow alleys in life will offer you very little, if at all, those elbow room or wiggle room when you can eke yourself out. In worst cases, you could even end up locked-out in those narrow alleys and before you know it, you are just so stuck-up, there's no way for you find a safe exit from such predicament. So, let us be wary and forward-looking for THOSE NARROW ALLEYS❗❗❗
