"If you ever find yourself in the wrong story ... leave."
Mo Willems
No matter how often our lives expand, we never truly have confirmation of our final destination. We do not have a mechanism within us to detect error and then immediately redirect. We are allowed to wander off into the wilderness before we realize the error of our ways.
Life is easier to navigate by sending an email, texting a change in plans, or securing a business plan through the use of a computer wherever one travels. We can easily delete files, edit earlier transmissions, and alter digital pictures. If we need a more personal touch there is of course Face Time or Skype!
When we slow down to analyze our life, we may not like the results. We may even be bewildered by how we have become so entangled by over extending and not honoring personal boundaries. Depression or anxiety hovers over us as we realize we are following the story line that has been taken over by someone else. The script no longer supports us and we crave different words. Renewal and relief floods us once we have the courage to disengage, to become a beginner once again.
