Brakes in Life

Image
Someone asked, “Why do we have Brakes in a car?” And got a variety of responses, like, "To stop", "To reduce speed", "To avoid collision" etc., But the best answer was, “To enable you to drive faster....” Give it a thought. It's true but seldom such smart out of box thinking is done and is much less appreciated. For a moment assume you have No brakes in your car then how fast will you drive your car..? It's because of brakes that we can dare to accelerate, dare to go fast and reach destinations we desire At various points in life, we find our Parents, Teachers, Mentors, Friends and Spouse etc. questioning our progress, direction or decision.
