Hello everyone
THE TRAIN OF LIFE…
Life is like a train journey: people get on and off, there are accidents, at some stops there are surprises, and at others there is deep sadness…
When we are born and board a train, we meet people and believe they will stay with us for the journey: they are our parents!
Unfortunately, the truth is quite different…
They get off at a station and leave us without their love and affection, without their friendship and companionship…
In any case, there are other people who are getting on the train and who will be very important to us…
They are our brothers and sisters, our friends, and all the wonderful people we love…
Some consider the journey a short stroll… Others find only sadness during the journey… There are others who are always present and always ready to help those in need…
Some, when they go down, leave behind a nostalgia that lasts forever… Others go up and down right away, and we barely have time to cross paths with them…
We are surprised that some passengers we love sit in another car while we are left to travel alone…
Naturally, no one can stop us from looking for them all over the train; sometimes, unfortunately, we can’t sit next to them because the seat is already taken…
It’s no big deal… Travel is like that: full of challenges, dreams, hope, farewells… but with no return…
Let's try to make the journey in the best way possible… Let's try to understand our fellow travelers and seek the best in each of them…
Let us remember that at every moment of the journey, one of our companions may falter and may need our understanding; we too may falter, and there will always be someone to understand us…
The great mystery of the journey is that we do not know when we will get off the train for good… We do not know either when our fellow travelers will do the same. Not even the one sitting right next to us…
I think I would be sad to leave the train... I'm sure of it! Parting with all the friends I've met on the train will be painful... Leaving my loved ones alone will be very sad...
But I am sure that one day or another I will arrive at the central station and see them all coming back with luggage they didn’t have when they got on the train…
On the other hand, I would be happy to have contributed to increasing and enriching their knowledge...
All of us, my friends, let's do everything in our power… to make a good trip and try to leave a good impression of ourselves when we get off the train…
To those who are part of my train, I wish you a good journey!!!
Have a good weekend
