Life’s Highway

Continuing along life’s highway, we come into contact with many obstacles, all of which are said to enhance us a people. I have had some very “enhancing” people in my life so far. Just when I was starting to think that I was learning from all my previous lessons, yet another new “enhancement” comes along!!! I know – it is just to keep me on my toes, not to get bored or complacent, maybe “quiet” for a while would be a nice option, but clearly not yet….

As I have been navigating around the manic drivers, (people diving into relationships too quickly), drunk drivers (those who need a bit of liquid support to break through their own barriers), tail gaiters (those that want to take over your life and show you how to live), the policeman (those who know what is better for you and want to take you by the arm along their chosen path) or maybe the courteous one comes along now and again, to prove that even rules have exceptions!!!

Learning to make choices and believe in yourself after several collisions is a hard lesson, but with time it does get better. Even a very nervous driver can start with very short journeys. (Building your social confidence in a local area), before heading off to the Motorways and a new horizon in life.

I was at this junction, just deciding what destination was beckoning, when the behaviour of another driver totally confused me, being in Spain we do get used to the odd driver coming towards us on the wrong side of the road, but in a relationship when somebody does just that a head on collision is almost inevitable. I was recently introduced to new terminology “Selective Lies”, Selective Hearing is a common term and I must admit useful at times. But the definition of Selective Lies is…”I did not lie, but did not tell you everything”……interesting observation, which in itself does seem just to cut the other person’s choices down, as they do not have all the facts to make an evaluation and a decision. Keeping somebody in the dark about part of your life, when there is supposedly trust, and confidence does seem a bit like taking a Cash Dummy out for a picnic, not much point really!!!

Relationships like driving needs working on, from the novices of youth, to veterans many people have come across a variety of changes, throughout their personal journeys. One thing is sure nobody has gone through life without some snarl up, mishap or error of judgement, learning to use the signs and communication will always make your journey easier and safer. Sharing the navigating and driving when you have a passenger works wonders, as it gives both of you chances to improve on all your skills, to say things as they are and what you see, so the picture is much clearer for the other person as well. You can then both enjoy the views and take time to know what is important to the other.

Love is a four letter word, respect does not have a lot more, but it makes such a difference, just think if every driver respected the other how much easier the roundabouts would be……..
