Life has many metaphors…

This one came to me this morning…

My car hit a pothole, the rear tire blown and sits deep in that same pothole that blow out the tire. The cold, ice and snow make it nearly impossible to change the blown out tire and move on, out of the hole.

As I sit stick in my own circumstance I feel a sense of helplessness. Not able to move forward in the direction I was going. Paralyzed by knowing life around me is freezing cold and the weather doesn’t look like it’s going to change anytime soon. Feeling stuck right where I am for the time being… An uncomfortable situation, no one to change the tire but me. A challenge that seems impossible and daunting at this moment. I hold onto the truth of knowing the weather will warm up, cars will pass by, and there is help out there which I can wave down and share my exhaustion from life and being stuck in this pothole…

My tire needs to be changed, the damage may be so great I may actually need a new one!
All the time believing and knowing I will be up and running again soon. Moving once again on this road called Life!

The goal, the challenge:
Living life to its fullest, even when you are stuck for awhile with a blown out tire in life’s pothole!

Anyone have a jack I can borrow? Maybe it’s time to call AAA!
