DRIVING ACROSS WEST TEXAS

Building something real,

having an impact,

bringing something powerful to life

is like driving across west Texas.

 

Off in the distance, you can see

the outline of your destination.

 

So you keep

driving,

iterating,

stopping for lunch,

driving,

iterating.

You might get a little bored.

 

You will experience tiredness.

 

You will begin to wonder

whether

the destination

exists

at all.

 

Then, as if by magic,

you’ve arrived.

 

You come to what you have been

envisioning,

creating,

striving for.

 

You stop.

You get out.

You give thanks.

You celebrate.


 

You wonder at the

road

and

miles

behind you.

 

And then you look ahead.

 

Off in the distance, there is a new destination.

 

You know what to do next.
