Navigating the Journey

I often set out with a clear plan, believing I know exactly where I want to go, only to realize that the destination no longer appeals to me. As I begin craving a different path, I feel overwhelmed by endless options. What once felt liberating now leaves me stuck in uncertainty. Lost in indecision, I wonder whether to wait for clarity or simply move forward, even if it means heading in several directions until I find my way.

But I’ve learned that standing still rarely brings the answers I need. It’s by taking those uncertain steps, making wrong turns, and allowing myself to explore that I begin to understand what truly resonates with me. Slowly, the path becomes clearer—not because I planned it perfectly, but because I dared to move forward and figure it out along the way.
