Journey Ahead

"We can only be responsible for 2 things: deciding where we're headed and moving as far as we can see right now in that direction." by Sage Cohen 


I am currently reading a book by Sage Cohen, The Productive Writer. She so brilliantly states the quote above. She also goes on to say, "We don't have to understand the entire journey. But when we're clear about our destination and take small consistent steps in that direction, we may be surprised to find ourselves clear across the country in no time at all."

I love it. It makes perfect sense to me in this moment. This is a New Year. A New Beginning for what ever  direction we choose for ourselves. There's no better time than the present to rethink the road we are on. Are we happy traveling full speed ahead or do we need to pull over and redirect our GPS? I would have to state that my road is a little to bumpy at times, but I know that I can see the endless possibilities just around the bend. I sincerely hope that you take a moment and soak up these thoughts. Can you see as far as you can see right now in your current direction?

  1. I think my GPS is broken. And I can only see as far as the wall in front of me.
