Life

like a back road

By Ana BaptistaPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Life is like a secondary road.

Sometimes we're going at the velocity we want, things happen smoothly and there's no obstacles on the way. We reach our destination on time and full of positivity. But other times, there's works on the road, there's a slow driver in front of us or we might need to detour to get to where we want to be.

Life is pretty much the same. Sometimes things happen just the way we planned, we're sailing smoothly through everything. And we reach our goals without any problem. But more often than not, there will be obstacles, detours and things just won't go our way.

That's okay, because those detours and road blocks will take us to your destination, maybe through prettier paths or maybe not.

But we'll get where we're meant to be in the end.
