Are you Spiderman?

Paul Knight - Thursday, September 30, 2010

This morning as I was hanging the washing out (yes I can look after myself) I walked straight in to a spider web. The dam thing was face height so I took the whole lot with me! Everything I was carrying went up in the air as I did my panic dance around the garden. After my screams had ceased I looked for the culprit. Little Fred was hanging by a thread from the fence just out of reach. I went to make a coffee. Sometime later I passed Fred again. His web was rebuilt where he had finished up earlier that morning.

Keep going if things change

Seems Fred knew if you don't pull your socks up and rebuild if the s**t hits the fan you will stay stuck in that moment, in his case hanging around and starving to death. In our world it may be a relationship breakdown or a job loss. Anything that stops you in you tracks and potentially changes the life you know right now, and yes I have been there before you ask. I have rebuilt my web more than once in my lifetime.

Like Fred, it may not be your fault things take a dip for the worst and you certainly can't change what happened so why dwell on it? If it was your fault then learn the lesson and move on (otherwise you will get the same lesson further down the line).

If your web is broken START SPINNING SPIDERMAN!
