The Path We Take...
It’s almost impossible to get lost on the traditional path of school, career and nuclear family - there are signposts (and previous travellers to ask for directions) everywhere.
It is possible to get lost when we make our own path - lots of forks in the road and interesting diversions, but since it’s our path, it’s up to us to decide which way we to go.
But if we’re on the traditional path and it just doesn’t feel right, well that’s something a bit different - that suggests we’re trying to go the way we think we should be going, but it’s not the way we really want to go.
To be clear, no one path is better than another, but whichever one we take, we need to know it’s really the right one for us…
