RE: Why It Is Important To Sometimes Get Lost In Life

in #life7 years ago

My feeling is is that we think we have way more control in our lives than we actually have.

I think we are more lost than we know most of the time and thinking that we know where we are going is an illusion.

I find setting out in a particular direction without attachment to the outcome leaves me free to forge unpredicted paths and discover magic that I never knew existed.

The hardest part is when it seems like things are falling into place. Then the temptation is to hold on tight which never seems to work as well as when my touch is lighter. 😊

That’s right. As humans we want to have as much control over our life as much as possible. It is of course too difficult to do that as there are simply too many variables in life. So, we generally start panicking at the slightest hint of something unpredictable.
