TRAFFIC LIGHT.

Traffic light is used in order to bring peace in a very chaotic road. When everyone wants to cross the intersection, there is the traffic light which dictates you what to do. Its color signal is the simplest of all instructions I know.


          Green means go. 
          Yellow means slowdown 
          (or speedup for some which is something debatable). 
          Red means stop.

I wish life's instruction is as simple as the traffic light's signal - you'll get a sign when to start, when to slowdown or speed up and when to stop. I wish there were red, yellow and green lights in some forms of human activity in order to help us.

STOP.  You'll feel good when you know that life would give you a blinking red light whenever you do wrong. This way you can learn to correct your mistakes on your very first try - no more second mistake. You save time, you save effort. The impact would be minimal.

YELLOW.  For me, warning sign is always good. It indicates a hazard ahead. If we have a warning sign, then (likely) we don't have to face any wrong-doings and escalations.  You'll be guided to be very cautious on your actions. You could lessen the negative impact of it, or you could actually prevent it from happening. Less worry, no more rework.

GREEN.  If there is a green signal - then you don't have to be worry at all. You have the signal to keep going cause you're doing a good job. There is a chance to be better, there is also a chance to be stagnant. But still you know you are OKAY. If there is the green signal, then there is a fairly less chance that you will be late. You'll get to start everything you have to do on-time. No more cramming, no more rush.

Its a wonderful feeling to find that there is a decision signal on the journey of our life. Life would be so much easier if we only have one! But nothing works perfect in a real world. You'll have to learn it your way. You have to stretch to make everything perfect. You have to find your red, yellow and green light within your conscience in order to guide you. 

It is good if you have a friend, a family or someone you know that could be your conscience - to tell you when to stop, when to be cautious or when to keep going. Good thing I have mine. They are my traffic light that guides me and helps me with my decision making. ♥ 

Yet, it is still not easy. The decision relies on you. 

Because, still - in reality, YOU ARE YOUR OWN TRAFFIC LIGHT.
