Oft, life is a time for reflection. For looking at our past, appreciating
where we currently are and gazing out over our future as if it were a vast
ocean, Brobdingnagian in size, each of its waves promising the potential of
something powerful or of forces that will lull us into feeling serene. Life is also a conundrum. In it we find hope, lost dreams,
pleasures, anticipations and excitement so intertwined as to resemble a brier
patch. Some areas are unable to be
navigated while others relent, allowing us passage. Life keeps us guessing—as it should. Twisting and bowing us to its
will.
Though it may not seem so at times, we are granted influence
over how our lives will progress.
Perhaps the best way to explain how is by this quote from M. Scott Peck,
MD. “We must be willing to fail
and to appreciate the truth that often, ‘Life is not a problem to be solved but
a mystery to be lived.’”
