Drop the Rock
November 14, 2010
Greetings, fellow trudgers on “the road of Happy Destiny”…
A snap quiz for today…
Question: What’s the best way to walk with a large rock? *Life is rarely described as easy, but at times, if some of us were judged solely by our behaviors, one could conclude that we prefer a hell that’s familiar to a heaven we’d have to get used to.
Today’s quiz reminds me to ask: What’s my rock made of? What am I getting out of carrying it? Would life be better without it? Do I need help putting it down (letting go)? How do I ask for help? When the help is offered—do I accept it?
“Boy, you’re gonna carry that weight, carry that weight a long time.” — The Beatles
Happy trails!
* PS: Answer: Drop the rock.
