It's right here on the map.

“The direction you choose to face determines whether you're standing at the end or the beginning of a road.” - Richelle E. Goodrich


Following a path in life is an interesting process. There are moments when the fog rolls in and nothing seems clear. You walk along and things reveal themselves along the way. How do you know which way to go, when to turn, when to keep going or when to stop?

 

Now maybe you are reading this and thinking, “Great! Bianca is now going to reveal the answer to this conundrum of life!” Sorry, but sadly, no. Apparently we all have our own path to follow. Imagine we all are born with our own personal road map. Like any map, we have lots of choices of where to go. Plenty of adventures are waiting in any direction. My map may have some of the same roads that your does, but it may also include a few that are not on yours. I see it like this: there are times when a pretty side road beacons us to enjoy life a little more. Or is it a test for us to affirm our desire to forge ahead? Hence the conundrum. As the quote says, it’s all about which direction you choose to face. I would add that what also matters is wether or not you are moving at all. Better to make a wrong turn than to sit at a stop forever undecided. 

 

My wise teacher Kenny Werner would say, “There are no wrong notes.” I say, in life every turn offers an adventure and an opportunity of some kind. Just keep moving and soon enough you’ll figure out where you are on that map of yours.


Namaste!
