This term, so enigmatic yet alluring. There's a certain sense of security it provides us, to know that there's a preordained map drawn out for us and we're blindly navigating through the seemingly charted waters.
But just how much faith can you put in the unknown? Leaving the steering to a ghostly captain, who may be a cog in the larger wheel of life, or could even be a pirate out to steal that elusive treasure lying hidden in your chest.
This is where your outlook comes in. Which box do you put yourself in?
If you're looking for a first aid kit, then you might sit tight in the comfort of the safe zone i.e. your dinghy floating near the shore.
Or are you of the adventurous kind, one who dives nose-first into choppy waters only to pull your sail towards the oncoming surge. Is that the thrill you seek?
There are no absolutes, and choosing your boat for the given conditions is considered wisdom. So fret not if you don't know how or where to go, because you are living and you are learning. You might even be surrounded by sharks, but that's when your spirit kicks in from the depth of your being, bringing forth the courage to swim through rather than sink.
And that just might be it – your destination lies past that fear, beyond that horizon, all the while radiating with the beauty of a setting sun.
