STEPPING STONES OF LIFE
Norman Vincent Peale has a marvelous illustration of this. He says that when he and his wife would drive up to their summer place they would often arrive at night. A rough path of stepping-stones led from the parking area to the house. On stepping out of the car with a flashlight, he discovered that it would not illuminate the entire path, just the stones directly in front of him. However, by stepping from one stone to another, he could reach the house quite easily. That is how life should be lived, one day, one step, one job, one minute at a time. We miss the joy of living if we are always off in the past or in the future.
