This morning, the shuttle bus encountered four yellow lights. Our stubborn and fearless driver decided to chase every single one of them. And at all four times, he ended up running red lights. He wasn't even close on any of the lights. Yet his tenacity and persistence were almost inspiring. He never seemed to learn his lesson. And, driving a big shuttle bus, it wasn't like anyone was going to rush out and hit him (they'd end up hitting me) for blocking the road. And so, on this grim Monday morning, let's all learn a lesson from shuttle bus driver- even when things aren't looking good, just keep running, running, and running.
(Speaking of running, I decided a couple of weeks ago that I'd start running three times a week. I have run zero times since then. Though on Saturday night, Landlady Chang and I agreed that we'd do so on Sunday morning, only to wake up and discover it raining outside. "You can't run in the rain," we said to each other, shrugged, and I started watching teevee instead. But that was before my shuttle driver put my life in danger. Now I know better.)
