"Zebra Crossing"

I'm moving to a new city today, Change is so invigorating, so exciting, new experiences, best of all, new people.

Most of all, Change EMPOWERS you to step out of your comfort zone, to challenge yourself, to stretch the threshold of your abilities.

Patience isn't one of my virtues, I hate having to wait for the traffic light to turn red before crossing the road, especially if I'm in a hurry to get somewhere (did I mention that I'm a Late-o-manic), I feel almost annoyed with the drivers zooming past, unaware and indifferent to my plight!

For this reason, I love Zebra crossings, those beautiful white stripes, seemingly ordinary yet so extraordinary, regardless of whether a car is coming at 200 mph, the moment I step on that white throne, the driver MUST stop, I always feel so POWERFUL when that happens, like I can stop all the hullabaloo going on around me, just focus and move forward.

Even if I'm having a bad day, I always smile when I'm on the Zebra crossing...

This is simply unacceptable. A SIX month hiatus will just not do. I take it your absence has been in preparation of this big move of yours.

I embrace change as well. I embrace it with slight trepidation however as it can be a bit scary. As you say though, this is what makes it som exciting. Good luck with this your move. Hope to be reading more on these pages now that you are settled.

First time here. Really true about Zebra crossing and traffic, but patience it really a virtue. I try now to sing while at traffic lights.
Nice thoughts
