WHERE YOU END UP

TODAY'S QUOTE:
"If you don't know where you're going, you'll end up somewhere else".... Yogi Bera

Simply put quotes make what I do so much easier. Life is all about movement. From birth onward we are students in the art of motion. Once we gain an upright position and master our feet, the real education begins. Destinations are limited. Boundaries are numerous. And escape is often the only real driving force powering little feet.

We learn quickly what's hot and what's not. We explore endlessly, always with an eye toward flight. We grow and hands that once held tightly, loosen their grip. We mature and become master of our destination. Some of us rotate happily for a lifetime in a very limited space. Some of us soar well beyond the familiar boundaries set by birth. And some hunger for far off places, yet never try to fly. 

Being master of where you are isn't guaranteed. What begins as a birthright is too often traded, rented, or sold for all the wrong reasons, to someone unworthy of the honor. We don't always place proper value on ourselves. The "caught up in the moment" can change into a hot and tragic mess in the blink of an eye.

The trick is to not view any negative location as your final destination. Never be satisfied to live a whole lifetime in a mean and dirty place. Where you are is only temporary, unless it's where you're happy to be. Whatever power you gave away can be reclaimed any time you choose.

If you don't steer yourself you'll end up wherever chance deposits you. And any gust of wind will have more power over what happens to you than you do yourself. Don't be satisfied to be just a wind-drifter. Don't let any misfortune be simply an accident of location. Don't willingly be in the wrong place at the right time. Drive yourself, or be forever driven by one slave driver or another. And as always.... think about it.... let it ride.... then decide!!!!
