TRANSCRIPT
Traffic was moving at a snail pace. Never stopping long enough for anyone to get out of their car. Pretty soon cars were honking at each other at random. Others were scanning different talk radio stations trying to find out the cause of this kind of slow down, with no luck.
The ground began to rumble and cars on the road appeared to bounce as they navigated cracks and fissures. One car couldn’t avoid the cracks and drove right into one. Other cars swerved and did their best to stay above ground, but nothing could be done. The road collapsed.
The Road is a reminder to simplify your tasks, go ahead and do them when you can, or, if they really are difficult and winding, begin the task at all. That is sometimes the hardest part for people. Take a step. Once you’re on the path, it’s easier to stay on.
