Keeping your head down

Most times I avoid difficult situations, confrontations; especially in the people/ emotional areas. It is more often a case of – wait till the dust settles, keep your head down or – wait till someone else does something, then it will sort itself out.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel, its just the getting there (in the darkness) that is the struggle. But perhaps if I learn through my struggles, then there won’t be so many tunnels? Just gritting your teeth to get through the darkness is a good way of coping but in the long run; looking at the process may be better.

sometimes... it would be nice to hit the fast forward on these dark tunnels, seems as if it would be so much easier...yet, then again, we pick things up along the way that we can use in the future. sigh. you're right, there is a light, it does get brighter

Hi Kay - Yes, the guys walking this tunnel would lay down, one on the left and one on the right; they would then walk the sides of the tunnel till they were out the other side. I guess it was hard work but they probably made it before the horse, who went over the top.

Have a good week.
