Changes Make It Hard To Follow Your Path!
Ever wonder why you are exactly where you are today? Is it Fate? Is it God’s plan? Or maybe Karma? Do we really have control over our own destiny? Who the heck knows, I sure don’t. Do you?
I used to believe that hard work and determination always got you where you wanted to go. After reflecting on all the ups and downs in my professional and personal life, and there have been many, as with most people. I’m not sure what I believe any more. How many times have you diligently charted the path to your goal, only to have that path bull dozed and your goal scattered beyond recognition? Well, join the club.
Every time something perceived to be bad happens, friends and family are the first to say, things always happen for the best or when God closes a door, he opens a window. I gotta tell you, I’m mighty tired of crawling through that damn window.
Recently, a post appeared on my facebook page, thank you Lynda, that went as follows: Some changes look negative on the surface but you will soon realize that space is being created in your life for something new to emerge, by Eckhart Tolle. I think I like that best.
Once again, I’ll clamber through that window and gather up the scattered pieces of my obliterated goal, bury them and design a new one. Only this time, I am going to watch and see where the path leads rather than directing its route. And…I think… I will take time to stop and smell the roses or enjoy the scenery along the way. The one thing I do know is that I have met lots of awesome people along the many paths I’ve traveled, then again, some people not so much.
With Monday behind us, I think I’ll take the road less traveled and see where it leads, you are welcome to join me. Have a magical week! Oh, by the way, these pages are under construction, I am learning as I go. Comments are welcome.
