Did it throw you under the bus?

Do you sometimes feel that "life" threw you under the bus?

Or are you more the type who is "driving the bus"?

No matter how old I get, I am always driving the bus. I seem to come through challenges and difficulties with flying colours. A little rest, a new day, and I am on top of the world.....are you like that?

My mom used to say that things change every 7 years. I don't know if that was just a superstition...or if it really happens, but it sure seems that way to me. Have you ever heard that?

Sometimes yes but then I just get on with life and take it by the lapels and shake it a bit

Re: Did it throw you under the bus?

I tend not to dwell on things and get on with life. I'm not one for putting all my problems or troubles on other people so I suppose I'm "driving the bus" ..... except I don't drive!

You don't need a license to drive the "bus of life" Mags......
Like you, I don't dwell on anything too long, best to just move forward and enjoy all there is to enjoy.........

Re: Did it throw you under the bus?

I like to be optimistic and think that life has thrown me onto the top deck of the bus. We have to have some bad things happen to us, to be able to appreciate the good things in life.

Re: Did it throw you under the bus?

Life for me isn't that bad that it threw me under the bus. I've had many ups and downs but I get over them.

On the other hand I'm definitely not driving the bus. The sort who sails through life being overly sensible, wise or lucky.

I call my own situation more like "running for the bus" and sometimes I catch it!

Not only have I been thrown under the bus, I think it reversed and drove over me again
