Riding the metaphor train


It seems like a eternity since I had some time off, almost as long ago as I posted here! Life has barrelled past like a country train, throwing up rocks and dust, blowing hot air in my face and causing the landscape to blur. I feel that same sense of disconnection as I used to feel standing beside the tracks as a kid. Why wasn't I on the train, rushing to a destination far more glamorous and exciting than where I was, standing in a paddock in the sun?

How is it that I'm still not on the train? Surely if that's my life I should be in the driver's seat, heading for a destination of my choosing? Circumstance and opportunity are strange beasts. But for the next two and a half weeks, I am in charge of the train, I've switched tracks and am taking the scenic route. I may not visit this blog again but who knows I just may return and linger (wouldn't that be nice?!).

I also hear the refreshments on this service are a wonder to behold :-)

All aboard!
