Speed bumps ahead

The idea of living a life free of any challenges or obstacles is highly unlikely. The speed bumps that occur in our lives serve a purpose. They cause us to slow down and reassess the direction life is taking you. You may be in a relationship that you believe is destined to last forever when circumstances change and that is no longer the case. Your partner may contract a condition that limits the time you have together. There may be someone new who enters your partner’s life and replaces you as the focus of that love. As time passes you grow apart through no one’s fault. Each of these can be considered as a speed bump in life. It requires that you adjust accordingly to move on to what awaits you. While it may seem to be a major stumbling block in the moment, it can lead to new positive ways to experience life. There is an expression that the Universe detests a void. If that is so, anew beginning will replace what has ended. You may not understand what is underlying the change, but in time it will be made known to you. That knowing is based on your openness to the message it brings. That is the function of the speed bumps in life. It is remaining open to what you are meant to learn from it. This requires that you slow down to acknowledge its presence. What is the latest speed bump you have encountered and what is it telling you?
