Mystery Bus Ride

"The wheels of the bus go 'round and 'round, all through the day"

Are you ready for the ride?

"Where going away, away - to where? I cannot say, mmm mmm! So have a nice day!"
So the little kids sing. So true.
So is life.

As the bus approaches each bus stop, people eagerly await to board. Different people, different destinations. As they board and pay their fare, there are those who sit up front while there are those who take a back seat. Throughout the ride, people continue to board while others complete their trip and descend the bus. Each person has their own unique place where they need to go.
So is the ride of life. People are forever boarding and descending - people are born and people pass away at their predesignated destination. We each pay our way and have our own seat. When a person passes away, it is indicative of the fact that he reached his destination - his ride is complete. Yet, just like a person wouldn't object to someone getting off the bus before them considering the fact that everyone has a different destination, so too in life.
We are all on the bus at different points, each for our own, unique mission.
Our own road trip.
Our own destination.

We are all on the road of life. Where are we headed?
In truth, where we're going, we don't need roads. With the Torah guiding the way, we will most certainly soar to the Heavens!

Say to yourself ten times today:
"Hashem, please guide me on the road of life - send me in the right direction!"
