TANYA'S LIFE LESSON #14 LEARNED ON THE BACK OF A HARLEY!

TANYA'S LIFE LESSON #14 LEARNED ON THE BACK OF A HARLEY – IN THE END YOU STILL HAVE TO GO BACK TO REAL LIFE!
If you stay in the fantasy for too long, it becomes reality. And any reality will always have it's own challenges. So, go home! Just make sure you bring that sense of adventure back with you. If you really aren't happy about returning home, maybe it's time to make some changes. But, don't go looking for greener pastures somewhere else before first trying to get the right fertilizer for your own yard!!! Chances are, if you are unhappy there, you will eventually be unhappy somewhere else anyway! (Even if it is on the back of a Harley!) Home (including work, friends church, whatever) should be the place where we feel safe, loved, fulfilled, needed, appreciated. But if that is not what you are riding back to, it's time to ask yourself what needs to change. Remember, we can only change ourselves, we can't change someone else. If things aren't the way we want them to be, what can we do to make them better? If our happiness depends on someone or something else meeting our expectations, we've given away our own control. It won't be any different if we move onto greener pastures! We will just be sticking our same stinky feet into the new yard and will soon have brown grass like we had before!! If, after careful evaluation, and making personal changes where needed, we decide it's time to move on (from a relationship, a neighborhood, a job, etc.),we should do so without feeling guilty. Just keep in mind,moving on doesn't change us unless we've changed first! It's still our own face we will see in the mirror! But, hopefully, like Dorothy, we will discover that there really is no place like home!
(It would be even better with a Cracker Barrel rocker!!!)
