Life is like a journey on a train...with its stations...with
changes of routes...and with accidents.
At birth, we boarded the train and met our parents,
believing they'll always travel by our side.
However, at some station, our
parents will step down from the train...
leaving us on this journey alone. As time goes by, other people will board the train;
and they will be significant...our siblings, our friends and our children.

Many will step down leaving
a permanent vacuum; others'll go unnoticed,
not realizing they vacated. The train ride will be full of joy, sorry, fantasy, expectations, hellos,
good-byes and farewells. Success consists of having a good relationship with all passengers...
requiring that we give the best of ourselves.

The mystery to everyone is:
We do not know at which station, we ourselves will step down.
We do not know at which station, we ourselves will step down.
So we must live in the best...
and offer the best of who we are to everyone...at any time.
and offer the best of who we are to everyone...at any time.
It is important to do this,
because when the time comes for us to step down and leave our seat empty ~
we
should leave many memories for those
who will continue to travel on the train
of life.
I wish you a joyful
journey for the coming year on the Train of Life.
Gather success and
give lots of sincere love.
More importantly,
thank God for the journey!
Lastly, I thank you
for being one of the passengers on my train.
Advice from a
Train
God's given you a
ticket for passage through Life.
Always be punctual
according to departures.
Set specific goals to
reach destinations.
Greet all passengers,
with a smile on your face.
Your guide's the
Engineer...trust Him thro' your travel.
Be not shunted, nor
become de-railed.
Keep your wheels shining; keep clogging along.
Keep your wheels shining; keep clogging along.
Keep your pistons strong and your engine
well-fueled.
Each bend on the
track is a new experience.
Silver rails will
carry you from depot to depot.
Enjoy the mountain
views and fast flowing rivers;
Even through valleys,
keep eyes on the horizon.
“Always smell the
roses,” a poet once said,
For Life is Gift

In addition to the foregoing, I
send you a magnificent train ride through various countries sent to me by Tom.
Life can be ‘just as beautiful’ if we open our hearts and minds.
Travelling on this scenic ride is rewarding…whether through Canada, United
States, Europe…or wherever you may be.
