A father and his son, a young adult, were driving to the cottage. The
father was worried, because his son had fallen into companionship with
people who might lead him astray, and he was trying to help his son
see that it was time for him to take his life a little more seriously.
"Aw, dad, I know you mean well, and I know Im not really doing you
proud, but I like to party. Ill get on the right track some day. I
dont need to worry neither do you."
They drove a little further, when suddenly the son said, "Hey dad,
that was the turnoff for the cottage. You missed the turnoff."
"I know," said the father." I think Ill just keep driving this way for
a while. I can always go back later to take the right road."
A few more minutes - and a couple of turnoffs - passed. The son began
to think of the swimming he would miss if they arrived too late.
"Dad, the farther you go down this road, the longer it will take to get back."
The father replied, "Thats true. The further you go down the wrong
track, the harder it is to get back. So when were you thinking of
turning your life around to head down the right track?"
There is asaying:
"It takes a real storm in the average person's life to make him
realize how much worrying he has done over the squalls."
