Sometimes when you feel like you most need a break, when you feel like you are just bogged down with issues ( some of those issues you take on your own, other issues that are given -and you accept- ... ) you instantly realize that you are okay - and you find yourself wondering what all the stress was for...??
This kind of reminds me of traffic. I remember driving on 90/94 through Chicago many times...I mean I would be driving at snail pace - 5 miles per hour, 10 miles per hour, S.L.O.W...LY... and it would feel like I was driving for HOURS...then all of a sudden for NO apparent reason, the highway clears and I'm back up to the speed I need to be. No matter, how irritating it is, wondering why there was a back-up in the first place, it feels so AMAZING to be 'free' of the traffic.
Hmmmmm, I guess patience and character are built in times of percieved stress and when you come to a place where you have just had enough - it's enough. Through this "traffic," feeling stronger can be such a blessing...an unintended consequence...but lovely all the same. Who doesn't want to be stronger! I guess you don't grow stronger without some stress...
Just remember, if it isn't too late right NOW, then it's not too late... :)
