The Highway Of life

Life is like a complex road net work system composed of street signs, robots, side walks, speed humps, off ramps and mainly highways. As common knowledge to any man, any invention or creation has a purpose. Therefore the main reason why roads where designed AND created where to be inhabited and driven on by cars. .

In the light of my metaphor of life in reference to a road, the obvious reference of the car is a human being. So its only right to state that the purpose of the creation of life on earth is for it to be inhabited and lived by human beings..Failure to which if not lived and inhabited, all we have is an empty road without cars or purpose.. That would make planet earth as desolate as Mars and every other planet we known to man. This is clear evidence to see that people like cars are extremely special. because without people and cars, earth and roads are useless and aren't worth living or been driven on.

Now that we realise the purpose of life and how special people are..Lets explore more about the complexity of this special car-man, and his drive through life and its complex road network of life.

like a car from a motoring company, man is designed uniquely and produced in many different colours, shades, shapes and sizes. Despite these minimal differences, their functionality and purpose remain the same, because they are composed of the same vital parts. I.e the engine-yo mind, head lights-your eyes, wipers-eye lashes, exhaust pipe-your mouth, windows, wheels-your legs, steering wheel-your soul, gears-your heart and seats-your vertebrae and finally a chassis-which is the body.

These unique parts are what constitute the body of a car. In collaboration with each other, these car parts complement each other for a car to be road worthy.
Before the car hits the road, it needs fuel as valuable component for it to move, though it also needs water and oil and air which are vital to its movement..Failure of which the car wouldn't move. In translation to man, the fuel is blood n food, the water is water, and the air is air..Lol..Good reason 2 explain why man cannot live on bread alone.Lol

Back 2the subject at hand which is the highway of life, with roads and cars as my topic of discussion. Its clear to see that no one man in life is the same, but merely just similar..The only difference that sub-divides us in the highway of life are our, characters, attitudes, direction and speeds by which we accustom our selves to living. This is what defines our purpose driven goals and lives.

like the roads, life as we know it has rules and regulations to be followed(10 commandments). They are basically drawn up for people to have a comfortable and safe trip through the highway. These rules are written in road safety book Manual(THE BIBLE). They are taught to a fresher driver b4 he hits the highway. They are posted throughout the highway of life in the form of road signs..If not educated properly about these signs, man can have a destructive drive through life with more than likely deadly consequences.
Hence the sound schooling and indoctrination of these vital rules of how to drive in life are extremely important for man.

Given that man is literate in driving, and has sound cautionary info about road safety, his road trip in life begins.
Like every road trip, man has to have direction and magnitude in his mind-engine. He has to have fuel to propel his mission. This is fanned by the propeller shaft in collaboration with water to cool the engine.This forms moderate steam that is contained in a radiator that is part of the engine bloc.This steam is the self esteem that drives us to our dreams..Without water, our cars over heat, and that is what happens when we are over expectant and to quick to get to our dreams. We cruise 4them and forget 2 regularly check and put water in our ENGINES..When this occurs Our cars warn us that we are overheating. This this is what happens when stress and depression overwhelm us when we are rushing to persue of our dreams.. If we ignore this warning, the car comes to an abrupt stop. This is when strokes strike peoples minds after deep depression. This as an automatic neurotic brain function to stop the mind-engine from knocking or dying..Therefore we ought 2b kind and easy with our engines as we drive towards dreams..The danger of cruising is that we miss all the vital road signs of speed humps, turns and pot holes that are ahead of us. If missed due to speeding, we face unexpected death. Therefore its important for us to be conscious of the danger of the accelerator and slowly balance our feet with a clutch 2calm DOWN the rush in stepping up n down our gears that drive our goals. .

Another problem we face is that we look at life as a race, and constantly try to compete with other cars in the highway. What these people in a rush to keep up dont realise is that all Cars where manufactured at different times. THESE INTRICATELY DIVERSE INTERVALS AND MODELS are a huge determinant in the existance and endurance of life..Especially because we all have different goals, dreams and schooling in life..
Mathematics proves this theory in this formula;
speed=distance/time..
This formula clearly explains that we can never catch up with the johnes' in the race of life, because of every man has a unique arrival time and departure from life. So this UNIQUE TIME denominator is the main factor in the equation of why man should never compete in the race of life..
If you are crusing through life and constantly looking at other peoples cars, you will either crush and die because you have no fore sight, or if you are lucky you'll survive but get lost when you see people reach their destinations. What a wasted time and life that would be..

People Should learn to appreciate and love their lives. See the value of their worth and unique design from the next man. for even though we are a different in colour shape and size, we are all special in the eyes of God.
Therefore envy in coveting another mans COVERT isn't right. It is this envy that causes the disastrous INFERIORITY COMPLEX suffered by many people in life and leads to them not having a pleasent ride in life, because of them constantly comparing themselves to the next man.
Some of these people decide to pimp their cars and put bigger tires, tint windows and amplify their sound systems. These cosmetic make overs give them a make believe theory that they are better than others. A superiority COMPLEX then follows suite in such people, who eventually feel inferior to others that naturally have what they aspire to have. Therefore its good for man to be CONTENT and comfortable in the skin that they are in.

One thing that man should realise as he drives through the high way of life is that its roads are imperfect and has potholes. Much like these potholes, man is also imperfect and therefore good care should be taken as he drives.
Because of these mutually exclusive imperfections, cars are known to Depreciate due to wear and tear. The death of the car is inevitable as it ages due to its scrap value. But in order to increase its comfortable life span, man ought to do the following;
1. Regularly Wash the cars interior and exterior( the body and the soul). because as we drive through life, we gather a lot of dirt internally and externally. that's why its important to bath and renew our minds.
2. Take the car for regular servicing, (church Service)/mechanics.
3. fill it up with the water of life (the word of God) and fuel up on all ambitions with his counsel.

Prayer provides a wireless GPS tracking system from God that can direct our Cars to all places and dreams we aspire to have and go to as we drive.
The SECRET to the key of life is in us having our mind-engines in good shape with the lord. This MINDSET Ignites our cars and eye-headlights to brighten with fore sight. They get so bright that even when we drive through storms, our eye lash-whippers keep our sight calm and clear, because we have a firm tire grip on the road to our dreams with our leg-wheels. These legs wheel us off with ease to the promised land of dreams when Our hearts are in the right gear.
We then have a guranteed comfortable ride with purpose as we drive, because our car seat-vertebraes are in good standing with the lord....

This post was inspired by a little note i wrote on my facebook status today. I would urge you to read this out loud to yourself like i did after i wrote it..lol. it goes like this;

Bump a bently, Bugati or Maybach, i have the best car in the world and that car is ME and my Drive to live life fully and fruitfully. The HIGHWAY to heaven is jam-packed with traffic-obstacles set up by Diablo's. But Am glad that my whip was customized and perfected to stand his heat by the JESUS WHIP MOTORING CO..

Uncover your worth and Enjoy your ride through your purpose driven life, with Heaven as your destination.
