At the crossroads

Hi!

Yes, I'm still here...rumors of my passing are not only unfounded, they are greatly exaggerated!:-)

Ever have those times in your life where you seem to be standing at an intersection of two roads, one leading to a place of absolute joy and delight, and the other leading to a similar sort of locale, but one you KNOW is filled with unpleasant detours and obstacles along the way? But still you know that it's a road you must navigate, because there's no other way you'll get to your intended destination lest you travel down that road.

That's where I am, so to speak, at this point in life. At that fork in the road...and I'm simultaneously looking forward to the trip down each one, yet dreading the aforementioned detours along the latter, because they are painful detours I've encountered far too often of late. But still I know I must go...because the joy I know I'll find at the end of that particular road is something I've needed to have for a long time.

And it's not that I have to choose between the two roads...I can go down each simultaneously, and nothing different will happen if I do. I just know that the one that I know has the unpleasant detours is one I HAVE to travel, whether I like it or not! The other undoubtedly has obstacles of its' own, but I don't know what kind or how many. All I know about that one is that it leads to a place I've wanted to be in for a long time....and it's worth whatever I happen to encounter on the way.

It's just that I have to prepare myself in order to go down either one...so I have to exercise care and caution for each journey...lest I not be ready if and when I encounter the obstacles that will be there along each road.

So I've got an interesting pair of trips ahead of me.

And isn't that how life is? You can't just sit around and let it go by. For it to mean anything, you've got to get up and GO somewhere at some point.

Confused? That makes(at least)two of us! I'll know more once I get going down either road...and who knows, I may publish a bit of a travelogue here...so even if you're not along for either ride, you get to see my boring travel movies(though I doubt they will be that boring at all!)in this humble corner of the Web.

Stay tuned!
