Moving Ahead, Making a Turn or U-Turning?

LIFE is like driving on the highway/motorway. Everyday is a new mileage driven through. Every new distance show a new scenery. Most sceneries are repetitive, with the greenery pasture, the cows mooing, the unique houses with their smoke raising from the chimneys. Along the journey, sooner or later, you have to make a decision to exit the highway. When do you filter-off from the highway is an art itself.

LIFE is also about making the right turn, that is, making the right decision. "When do we drop off from the highway," is the question asked by your inner self. "Should we make this turn, or should we wait," is the confusion we always have had within. But very often, we also ask ourselves, "Have we miss the right turn? And should we turn back or should we make the next turn?"

LIFE decision will not come easy basically. Time do not wait for people. The speed of the journey is fast and fast-paced the life is. Quick-second thinking and decision are good but also can lead to hasty and bad decisions. Slow and thoroughly-thought decisions are good but the journey did not stop meanwhile; and any bad mistake earlier will become worst.

LIFE journey is adjudicated by life decisions made earlier. Perhaps choosing to move ahead, conniving the turns and U-turns, is the easier route. There is no heartbreak about missing a turn, no second thought about making any turn, and no confusion and panic when faced with a U-turn sign ahead. Was it going to be the right decision? What lies ahead at the end of the highway? Is the highway record-breaking and has no end? If yes, good. If not, isn't then too late to turn? Does the "I told you so" sound cynical?

LIFE, the condition of existence, cannot tolerate turns and bounds. Like the wheels and brakes of the car braking hard before a turn, life get drawn and worn out after several turns. What's life is despair or the breakdown of your brakes, which is danger heading for a crash. "Can't we turn now, can we? And will we end the journey soon after the turn?" the puzzle is left riposted into the labyrinth.

LIFE is never conditioned for sudden stoppage and u-turn. Every decision must make it round through, just like the wheels of the car must make it wide turn to pull through the kerbs and obstacles. But to most people dismay, you are on the high-speed motorway. There is no u-turn. Only the professionals, the frequent dumper of baggages, know the art of drift-turning. No one else does it better.
