Life is a series of lessons

When we begin our life's journey, do we have any idea how it may go? Do we foresee any difficulties along the way, or do we move forward in hopes of great joy?

We make the best plans for that time so we think, but do we have any idea of where we are thirty to forty years later? 

If you are a wise person you may say why you would pose such a question? 

No one at age twenty knows where they may be at sixty. True, but ask a twenty-year-old and they will give you all the reasons in the world why they know the path they have chosen is right. 

Life when we are young seems easy enough. We make a plan, find the right person to share our life with, and we are on our way. 

However, we do not for one minute anticipate any obstacles that we may have encountered in our life as problems, or as a possibility we may experience in our twenties.   

Why should we?  If we did try to anticipate problems on our journey, we may become stuck in fear, and decide not to go. 

So, I say to our young people, "Live Your Life to the Fullest, and Explore all your Opportunities."  

Look at possible pitfalls along the way, but live and don't look back — you may be pleasantly surprised one day.
