FALLING ACORNS, MIGHTY OAKS

Right Interstate, Wrong Direction

I could write a book titled “right interstate, wrong direction.”  I didn’t do it today, but it could have easily been today or any other day.  It is a theme with me.  I’m constantly finding myself on the right road, but going the wrong direction.

Literally and metaphorically.

I’m trying to live life in drive, not in reverse.  My path is full of twists and turns (like the roads my GPS throws me on while I’m traveling for work), so sometimes my mind is running through my life in the wrong direction.

Instead of looking forward, I’m looking backwards.  Back on the past.  I spend a lot of time analyzing what I could have done differently in a scenario.  The scenario is over.  It doesn’t matter anymore.  It’s time to look forwards, not backwards. I don’t need to be going eastbound, I’m headed westbound.

The last reference was more literal, since that is a theme (darn unclear GPS).

It’s the time of year where I’m always tired, so I don’t have a terrible lot to say sadly.  I’m just moving forward and living life.  I hope to have some good pics from this weekend, as it is the big Harry Potter themed festival this weekend.  Looking forward to my friend Victoria coming to visit me, as I have missed her and will be lonely as Ashley S. leaves for Nevada tomorrow. She’s headed back to her family, but I’m forever greatful for the time we got to spend here in Virginia.

For her, right interstate, wrong direction might really mean something.  Tomorrow, she’ll be on the right interstate, going in the right direction.  Maybe life will pull her back on this highway one day, but for now I’m confident she’s doing what she’s gotta do and she’s gonna do it well.
