“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”
Lao Tzu
Life is a journey, make of many steps down many paths.
Some people reach a point in life where they may question are they on the right path? Some may not, continuing their travels down a road in oblivion to where they come from, what is their destination? Some may stop, look around and be afraid.
I probably did all of these at various times in my life but I don’t recall that I consciously making the decision to pick a new path. Now in my semi-aware state, the first question I ask myself after stopping and looking around, is how the heck did I end up here? The second, which path to take?
The easy answer to the first is to say by sheer good luck! However I’m old enough (52 at the time of writing this) to know that is just a facetious and superficial answer. There were a multitude of factors and forces that lead me to the place where I am today. I hope in the future to explore some of them, but for the moment I’m just happy to be able to look around and savor the many paths around me …
