Where will life take you?
How much is within your control and how much is outside of what you choose?
Does control matter? Or is it better to simply take one step after another and follow the path that feels right at the moment, a path that occurs without planning or destination?
It's probably a bit of both--both plans and serendipity.
There are places we can clearly see, places we move towards without deep thought or wondering. Then there are places thrust upon us by association, unexpected events, and needs--places we might not imagine or even understand. And there's the natural everyday steps we take to survive and live as best we can.
Where will life take you?
No one really knows, but if we live as well as we can, it's likely we'll find stops upon the life path that are truly gratifying, enjoyable, and well worth the journey we're on.
