THE DENTS

 

THE DENTS

     One can say that the use of language is an art form if one is truly into the crafting of the ‘word’.  The truth of the matter is that any communication in itself no matter what form or fashion it comes in is an art form.  Well one of my favorite tools in the language department of communication is the analogy.  The analogy is one of the most useful tools because it can aid a teacher and a student in seeing into the core of a debate through the other’s eyes.  In speaking to a friend the other day I had to explain that you had to learn to deal with the dents that life is going to send your way.  Because no matter how well you take care of your ‘car’, after many years there is bound to be a dent or two and many more scratches from the close calls and runaway grocery carts. 

     The trick in this game is to learn to keep the engine running properly with the best ‘oil’ used in your oil changes and learn how to smooth over the ‘dents’ and keep the car looking good.  One must always remember though, some folks like cars that look good with no dents, some folks like cars that run well and are reliable, and then some are always searching for both.  Which one are you?
