At the fork in the road.....

When you arrive at that intersection in your life where the single path branches off into three or four tracks, you often wish you could look into the future and peer through the mist to see what lies ahead in those unexplored regions. To have a chance to strategize, replicate, replay and enact the various scenarios needed to embark on the journey through one of these trails. Experiences, emotions and circumstances that have brought you to this juncture will most likely play an important role in helping you choose the path you feel is best for you to reach your destiny.

It is times like these you need to stand still, to meditate, to force your mind to project into the future, to extrapolate those trajectories into the unknown regions to illuminate the little space so you can have a glimpse of what is in store for you. Do not move, do not look back, stand still and let the trajectories recoil through you to the time of their origins, then let them push through once again, colliding with your mind and into the unexplored pathways. Do it over and over again.

Eventually you will understand which path you need to take. Another may choose a different path and call you a fool for the decisions you make but your destiny is not similar to theirs, your circumstances are not the same, your journey leads you elsewhere......
