There are a lot of people in my life who have questions. Including myself.
Should I do this? Should I do that? Which choice do I make? Where should I eat? Which beer should I drink today? Very tough questions, indeed.
The thing about these questions or choices is that they are never easy. Because the choice that you make decides what the next question will be. That is terrifying. What if you make the wrong choice?
Wouldn't it be awesome to have an answer book? Then you wouldn't have to think for yourself. Or agonize over every decision you have to make.
You could cruise along life's highway with this ornate route already determined for you on this beautiful map.
Turn left, turn right. Time for a pit-stop. Back on the road. Oh, stop. Look at that scenery. Uh-oh, traffic. Stop. Go. Enjoy the curvey roads, up the hill, down the hill. But beautifully mapped out for you. No thought necessary. No decisions to make. You can sit back and enjoy the ride.
Easy, breezey, beautiful... cover girl.
Oh, how wonderful that would be!!!
We all know that nothing good is ever easy. But, every choice you make puts you where you should be.
That's the whole point, right? You get on the road and spontaneously, or somethimes agonizingly, decide which way to go. And that in itself is a marvelous thing. Because in the end, it's not really about your destination. It's about the trip to get there. It's about making a wrong turns or getting lost occasionally. Or sometimes hitting a dead and turning around to find another way. No matter how you get there, you always end up exactly where you are supposed to be.
