Just more of a rocky road to climb through. Seems to be the story of our lives.Ilnara Heskenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18299242041768818364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329782430566577328.post-45201756983315722822012-11-20T13:21:25.937-05:002012-11-20T13:21:25.937-05:00*helpfully adds more dynamite to your Christmas go...*helpfully adds more dynamite to your Christmas goody bag*<br /><br />I always say: Explosions solve everything.

My usual reference to it is how the road is rough and difficult while traveling but when you stop to look back, it looks a lot smoother.<br /><br />Boulders are temporary setbacks. If I can't work around them, then I climb over them. Once in a while I use dynamite on them. There's been a few times when I've found the road did end after the boulder but usually I can find a new road to follow.<br /><br />I'm currently standing on top of my boulder, taking a good look around to see where I want to go next. I know what I would like to do, whether or not I can do it is the challenge. In the meantime, I need to work out a path through the boulders and potholes showing on the road ahead. <br /><br />Today will show me part of the road as we find out just how deep a particular pothole is. Or it might turn out to be Carvis's boulder. If so, then I'm going to need more dynamite.Ilnara Heskenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18299242041768818364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329782430566577328.post-1649871501227868352012-11-20T00:12:50.273-05:002012-11-20T00:12:50.273-05:00Oh, thank you for your sweet comment!

Too many times people latch on to the martyr syndrome and accept that they have to simply live with that "boulder" attached to them for the rest of their lives. Not so! It does not have to be accepted! Good reminder. Your boulder example shows holding on to the bad things and allowing them to hinder you in a whole new light.<br /><br />Be blessed,<br /><br />JessicaJessica L.
