“Accidents and inspiration lead you to your destination”
~ Mary Chapin Carpenter, (1956 - )
And with this quote a little story.
While living in Kentucky back in the mid-80's I ran with a friend, Ms. M. For a brief time in my life, Ms. M. and I were nearly inseparable. One day she told me about a time that she spent at a cloister on Long Island and the wisdom that a nun had shared with her there. The sister told her that some people are our companions in our journey through life, and others are merely signposts.
Figuring out the difference and accepting the results seems like an awesome act of faith to me. And I have spent years doing just that.
