I love three lane highways. I think they are a metaphor for life. When traffic is heavy I stay in the middle lane. If I am going too slow for someone they can move to the left lane. If I am going too fast for someone they can move to the right lane. The middle lane represents the middle path and this is the path I attempt to walk in my life. If traffic is light or non-existent I move into the slow lane so I can truly enjoy the drive. Most people don’t enjoy the drive. They are totally focused on the destination. If I drive to Gatlinburg it takes me approximately five hours. About half way there I stop for a big breakfast at the Cracker Barrel in Corbin, Kentucky. When my oldest son drives to Gatlinburg he gets there in approximately three hours with the help of a five hour energy drink but without the experience of a nice breakfast. I believe in life, and on road trips, the journey is the destination. Another reason I like the middle path is that it represents the contemplative way. Most people think there are two options for dealing with life. You can fight it or run away from it. The middle path is the path of simply being present. Whatever is going on, you don’t have to always fight it or run away from it. Instead, be present to it. Deal with it. Learn from it. Get over it. Life has a way of always pulling you or pushing you. Stand firm and strong on the middle path. Do not be intimidated by life. Be present to it. I know many of you love moving fast but as Gandhi once said, “There’s more to life than increasing its speed”. I highly recommend the slow lane. There’s a lot to see there and it’s a lot less stressful than always living your life in the fast lane.
