Keep driving
……………….
A young woman was driving with her father and they ran into a storm. The young woman asked her father:
What should I do?
Her father told her: Keep driving.
The cars begin to edge, the storm was getting worse.
What should I do dad? – Keep driving, replied her father.
Up ahead, a trailer (very big truck) was pulling up as well. She said dad, should I stop? it’s terrible and everyone is stopping.
Her father said, No! keep driving.
Now the storm was stronger. But she obeyed her dad.
Soon, she could see a clearing ahead. After a couple of kilometres. They were again on a a quiet, calm and sunny area. Her father told her, “Now you can stop and go out.”
She said, but why now?
He told her: ” When you go out, look back. All the people who surrendered are still in the storm, you did not give up and your storm is behind you.
If you are going through Hard Times, Always remember!
Even if everyone else, even the strongest, stops or gives up, you keep going.
If you do so, your storm will soon end, and the sun will shine on you again….
