A Place to Land
I was sitting at a stoplight, when I saw this tiny gnat land right in front of me on my windshield. While there was no impending danger to drive — it made me think. Even little annoying bugs need a place to land. Don’t we all? You can only fly for so long before you get tired. May be that’s why rock stars can only tour for several months at a time and then retire at the ripe old age of 45. We need a place to feel comfortable. I’m not encouraging getting so cozy that you don’t try new things. I mean a place to call home. A corner that feels like it’s yours. A spot you can feel comfortable in your own skin. Where you can finally accept you for you. Where people are more than just acquaintances, they’re friends. As the famous song from the t-v show Cheers says, “Where Everybody Knows Your Name.” If bugs need a place to land… then so do we.
