Few years ago a friend referred an insurance agent to me to carry out a life insurance policy. As I welcomed her to my home, she asked a question totally out of context, but it indicated what was uppermost on her mind. She said \”What do you think of people emigrating?\” We live in Ireland, there was a time of mass entry into the country and at the time she was asking, people were indeed emigrating en masse.
I answered her that, if people were thrown into a field with different job specifications, one was to clear the ground, another to sow the seeds, another to water and another to harvest. And the person sent to harvest sees the one that cleared the ground and the other that sowed the seeds going home, will he then pack up and say it is time for him as well? She pondered for a while and said it is true.
So, even though you are on the same street and doing the same job, your visions and missions are not the same. Stop comparing. Live your life on your own terms, according to your own vision. Be focused on your own goals and leave others to walk their journey. Stay in your lane. #YHTK
