I hate speed bumps but they are there for our good. We also have speed bumps in life which are also for our good.
Speed Bumps on the Road of Life By Larry Linville Car is driving so nice No snow and no ice It’s almost like child’s play Then a bump’s in the way Speed bumps slow drivers down They are all over our town Safety is their real goal That is their only role Speed bumps enter our life We sometimes call them strife Interrupting our day Giving us much delay Life’s speed bumps do us good Though we don’t think they should Forcing us to give thought To the things life has brought Taking time to see God In places that seem odd Taking another route To learn what life’s about

Well Preacher brother, all of the above is good sitting in the cushioned seat of a car, if you are furiously pedaling on a bike...a speed bum on that road is going to intrude in your social life (LOL) but I get your point, only if the copilot in the car shut-up and let me drive I could have been not distracted and saw that...(*) speed-bumper.
