The Soulful Atom

So, on this usual road i take to office when i'm riding, there are a new set of speed bumps put up. The lanes are pretty narrow and all blind turns. Before there used to be people coming from the other side whom we couldn't see or anticipate and it was quite a stressful few minutes. But now thanks to these speed bumps, which initially felt irritating, people actually have to forcible slow down. They may not immediately think and hence end up cursing the bumps, but eventually will figure out that those speed bumps make you think. They make you consider others.

Life throws us speed bumps too! So many times we don't think, we do slow down but we get irritated more than taking a moment to think. Thee is a reason that bump came about. Someone else, ideally life, thought about you and put that bump. Cause thats what life does, it gives you a stop a break and some means to complete the task- cause it does care! Thinking needn't be about the bump itself but about life in general. Bumps in life can be sorrow, happiness, deaths, births, Anything that makes you pause for a moment from the rush that your life has become! Anything that is unexpected, deviating from your plans, it maybe a good thing or bad thing ie making you happy or sad. But make sure the next time you experience a speed bump, be it in life or on the road, you take a moment to think. Life is teaching you to be considerate and compassionate and also in turn helping you to take care of yourself! :) :)
