We don’t always know –
So wonder where the path leads
Fascination guides.

I have two funny maxims about the path we take and how to choose it when feeling STUCK.
The first one:
When you don’t know where you are going, any road will take you there.
The second one:
Be decisive. The road of life is paved with flattened squirrels.
I love these silly “interrupts” when you’re feeling like you’re not sure what to do next – and so you do nothing or don’t see things through…
To me, what’s behind each of them is a sentiment of *trust*.
And when you aren’t exactly *sure* which path to take or where the path you are on leads to…
That’s where you can choose to be in wonder and even fascination about what might be ahead for you.
That might sound bananas: find the fun in not knowing what happens.
The thing is we don’t EVER really know what’s next.
So letting go of the idea that we can control fully any outcome, frees us instead to be fascinated or simply neutrally curious.
And that is way more fun than being worried about whether we chose “correctly” the path we are on.
Flow flow flow.
