Plans Are Guides
Captain of my soul…
Like me, I am sure you planned something before and it just short circuited in front of you. How did you feel? Disillusioned? Disappointed? Guilty?
Mastering the art of plan evolution is something we learn while we grow. Sometimes they follow the direct path we assigned to them, sometimes they go another way. Certain factors are not in our control. Like the relativity thing says, everything is inter-related at one point, in one way or another. In that sense, what we plan to perfection may not always be perfect in the end.
I did plan on marrying a millionaire, so that i may never have to work again. And here I am still unmarried but relatively happy. Relatively in the sense that I don’t know if I would be happier being married to a millionaire, but I know I am definitely happier than I was during my low times.
Sometimes, long term plans evolve the way we evolve. And whether we like it or not, there seems to be that river called fate that brings us to where we are supposed to be, tipping our well-laid out plans along the way.
Maybe life begins when we don’t set our plans in granite. Maybe we don’t have as much control as we think.
