While being the awesome husband I am, I kindly drove jo to work again. It meant I could do some shopping without making a second trip, and we could some time together in the car. She got to have a couple of hours in the office and come home again.
By the time I’d got in the car, Jo had already pressed the button to raise the electric garage.
We drove out the garage and started our journey.
Only, because I didn’t open the garage myself, I didn’t look back to check it was closed as we left the driveway. Thankfully, our oldest spotted the open garage door when he went to put some washing on the line. All was good!
This made me remember of the importance of looking backwards sometimes.
If we always look behind us at where we’ve come from, we’ll never be able to enjoy the journey we’re on now. And we’re likely to fall over or walk into a lamppost!
It’s great to have goals. It’s healthy to have dreams and ambitions and to work towards these righteous things we feel led to do.
But, it’s also good to look back sometimes.
It helps us remember where we’ve come from, and to see how much progress we’ve already made.
It might, also, help us see the gaping hole that should be a closed garage door.
Just a thought…
