I had at least three titles for this blog that I am about to write. We Must Work Harder, It's A Fine Line and All Things Being Equal.

All things being equal, because we are a marvelously designed creation of God, you would not wish for a traumatic brain injury

 including stroke any more than you would hope that your newly purchased car becomes involved in a major collision.

If your car was in a wreck it doesn't necessarily mean that it is totaled. You may wish that the crash didn't happen, but it did.

Now you do whatever you have to do to get it repaired. Perhaps it was because something that you were doing that put your vehicle

in that position. Or maybe it was through no fault of your own. It doesn't matter now because it happened. We can't change the past.


We need to work harder now. Just like your vehicle that was repaired, maybe it "pulls" to the right or left. Perhaps it has an annoying

sound that it now makes. Whatever, it doesn't really matter. It is our only vehicle that we will ever drive in our life.


It now becomes a fine line how we drive this vehicle. On one hand we must now work harder because it doesn't function like it did

before the wreck. How we drive now becomes a fine line because though we need to work harder at steering, all things being

equal we may have learned some new valuable driving techniques to make us better safer drivers.


All things being equal, we do now have to work harder than before. But it's a fine line that we need to take whether we work too hard

and have another accident. Or slow down and enjoy the scenery as we continue on our journey.

Drive safely.
