There’s another train
There always is
Maybe the next one is yours
Get up and climb aboard
Another train

Another train coming!! It would be a good song title, right? I can think of three things that might enter my mind: (1) I’m expectant, thinking that this next trip will be even more than I’m hoping for: (2) anticipating that there will be some great good surprises along the way once I’m on board and (3) hesitant to think of accidents that I know and understand may happen.
If it’s a literal next train, (like the commuter rail from Worcester to Boston, a two-hour ride I enjoy) I use the waiting time to use the ladies’ room, buy a snack, and either stand outside in the sun if it’s nice out or huddle inside by the door if it’s not.
If it’s a metaphorical train, I have to watch to make sure I don’t miss it, and try to be prepared for it. Lately, the trains I want to be on have been coming, but without the advanced degree or the driver’s license, I can’t get on. Yet.
Maggie, here’s a wish for you that your “hoped for train” will show up and you’ll jump right on so it can take you to your heart’s desire!
