Travel Transfer Transit Transitions Transient Transportation Truth
I’ll take TRUTH for 100, Alex…
It’s not any “Jeopardy” game when you fly, it’s fun and engaging if you choose this path. You just need to wait sometimes, haul it faster sometimes, relax and go all at the same time. I don’t mind flying, turbulence is not fun, but cars can have bumpy rides too. The truth is that the Lord never changes, but surely transportation does!
Riding the friendly skies home today, I started eating an extra piece of candy from “The Candyman” tucked in my pocket. An Almond Joy. This is a good travel memory of someone making a difference, JOY, making a party bus out of the Enterprise shuttle van, encouraging us to take selfies and sing along to pop tunes, so fun in a normally mundane job… Silly Silly Silly people, like the Candyman, make the bumps in the road much more fun. I tipped him girl scout cookies, the cooky mom meets candy man. And we transitioned easily from the transfer back of our rental car to airport terminal. Convenient Calm Cool… Candy…
This is where I wonder why a terminal (like a station) is called a terminal, because it’s not an end but current life runs through it. Busy busy busy waiting is so comfortable these days with electricity everywhere and comfy chairs, restaurants food and of course moms smuggle in snacks – NOT for the kids, they are ADVENTURE ADULTS, what a joy to see them self-sufficient. “Mom Win”…
I appreciated taking this trip and the flying high sky is yet another movement in the history of transportation – for which the Henry Ford museum was a great travel stop yesterday afternoon. Worth the money even just 2 hours, saw A LOT! We “flew” through the exhibition… trains, planes, cars, carts, cool…
I appreciated the Kennedy car, the McDonald’s and Holiday Inn neon signs, the Lincoln chair, and especially the Rosa Park’s bus, we sat in the bus, wow… great museum… love the trains, so in my blood…
The truth of counting one’s blessings includes remembering that this life is but a short stop, not terminal as in our terminal end, even in death we WILL TRANSITION in a TRANSPORT by the Lord. We will TRANSFER if we TRUST in the TRUTH. LIFE IS TRANSIENT, LIVE IT IN TRUTH.
(And just now TOUCHDOWN, we landed from our flight. It’s good to be home earth, a TEMPORARY home for now… TRUTH).
