The Train of Life

 


At birth we board the train and meet our parents, and we believe they will always travel by our side.

As time goes by, other people will board the train, and they will be significant, i.e. our siblings, friends , children, and even the love of our life.

However, at some station our parents will step down from the train, leaving us on the journey alone. Others will step down over time and leave a permanent vacuum. Some however, will go so unnoticed that we don't realise they've vacated their seats. The train ride will be full of joy, sorrow, fantasy, expectations, hellos, goodbyes and farewells.

Success consists of having a good relationship with all passengers , requiring that we 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.
