“Life is about the Journey, not the Destination!” I saw this sign at the airport today.
What stupidity! Tell passengers arriving for a flight, “Take any flight, doesn’t matter; it’s not about your destination, but only about the experience of the flight.”
Don’t know about you, but if it’s only about the journey then life is a sadistic, cruel joke and I want off!.
I’m on the journey preparing to arrive at the destination which is all important. My destination is heaven and union with God for eternity.
