Those people That Get In The Way

In life, some seem to march to the beat of their drum, often oblivious to the rhythm of the world around them. These individuals, whether by intent or circumstance, become the stumbling blocks in the chain of progress, hindering the flow of life's momentum. They are the ones who perpetually arrive late, causing delays; the ones who speak without listening, causing misunderstandings; those who resist change, causing stagnation.

Their actions, however unintentional, create ripples that affect the collective journey of humanity. They slow down the pace, disrupt harmony, and impede the natural evolution of society. It is as if they are standing in a busy intersection, oblivious to the traffic they are holding back.
