Roads vs. the Journey
“When you don’t know where you’re going, any road will get you there.”
- Cheshire Cat, Alice in Wonderland
When you read that quote, what comes to mind? Is it a negative idea that starts to swirl as in we have to have destination or else we are lost? We are driven to believe we have to reach a destination, set and reach goals, stake a claim, have a purpose, make something of ourselves, we have to achieve something, be someone! What if the journey was as good as the goal? Maybe a road is good for just enjoying the journey too. I have reached some of my goals but its the journey I appreciate most. Bottom line for me is that sometimes I am on this particular path to get to a destination. But my best days are when I am on any path and do nothing more than enjoy being on that journey.
