Wondering where i am going....

"What man proposes, God disposes". If I were to look back at my own life I laugh at it thinking of the plans I had for me and where I have landed now. Not that my landing is bad but this thought that we can chalk out a clear path is all hogwash. I would suggest that you keep walking with your agenda in toe and detour whenever an unseen hand directs you.

Haven't I seen you before losing your way again? If I'd be heading nowhere then I'd better head back, lol. Wouldn't want to end up in nowhereland. Lol, Kidding aside, Walking your own way should be done with what your heart says. But be sure to keep eyes on bumps & curves. And it's still best to walk a path with someone holding your hand. right?

I asked myself more or less the same thing this morning Well, I wondered whether there is reallyu any point in having a path at all. When I got up I switched the television news on and it was: - floods in Pakistan - floods in China - fires in Russia - a huge piece of ice, bigger than an iceberg, broken off frm Greenland and now up to its own devices and going towards Canada - the mess the oil spill has made.... I logged on here because I can't sit still either - and then I saw rhose moaning about their stars dropping I don't wonder what to do next because it seems something will happen and decide it for me or put a damper on any plans I make - so I sit, but not still

I am going for a walk, to a doctor's appointment and then home for dinner. You?

Sweetie, I live under constant fear of losing my only parent. I have a lousy bunch of relatives, who as per my understanding are just waiting for it. The law in our country is of no help, as is the administration. I have nobody else. I wouldnt be paranoid if I said I will be beaten up and thrown on road, if anything happens to my papa. I no longer know whether I love him, or it is my need to be safe because of which I want him around. Even so, somewhere in my heart, a tiny hope is there that these relatives would fear law and stay away. And so I work, and save for my retirement, a retirement that may or may not materialize. :) I am moving forward, aint I? You are much younger. Keep hoping, and moving forward sweetie. You never know, my relatives might make a formidable enemy who would become my protector, and you would find what you are looking for. :)

there are times when the path i was moving on just seem to fade away and disappear just like that,but in return,i think of things i have to get through.and if paths do try to be disappearing,there will always have paths to move forward on and make things right.we may stumble down and fall for some reasons,but there's time to stop and think things for a while then get started again.

You won't distract from the path Saphrina and the path won't disappear, as you are fearing. If my path disappears, I would carve another path.

What? We have a path?

I'm in the same dilemma. I am walking the path of nowhere right now. Good thing my parents completely understands the situation. But I fear for the next months. I really don't know what to do. I wish the path would go back sooner. So things would not be difficult for me.

I too keep on moving.. I know where I'm going.. but still, I feel like I want a break in my journey.. bit tired..

Hi dear, i too agree, but remember god's words, if one path is closed you will have more paths opened, but we have to be careful while choosing the path.

Sometimes I feel this way, too. It's like I have been trying for so long and there is no sign that I am leading the right path. I will go on the path to wherever it is, but sometimes I have to go back a few steps and move forward another second steps and trying to find motivation along the way.

Right, t agree with you.In life we do not ever think we WOULD have nothing, how would. Please go on your way, you will find many things you need.Will have not anytihng if you always sit there.

I constantly feel confused where to go which road to take and most all the time frustrated. I should feel lucky that after the fall of me . God gave me another chance to live without any pain and sufferings. I should be grateful instead. Anyways thou I felt lose again I know God will show me the way to my destiny.

Keep moving because if you stop you are giving up and you should never give up as one Day you will get there, it took me 40 years to get to it but I got there So do not stop keep going

Your discussion reminds me of a country song. "If you're going through hell, keep on moving face that fire walk right through it ya might get out 'fore the devil even knows your there." There's always a path, and sometimes it's better that we don't see it (it' surely deter us if we saw how crazy it really was). I think you know my answer to your question, I'd keep on walking (even if at first I didn't).

Keep on moving, saphrina and make your own path if you must. As for me, I am still on a standstill at the moment. I see some old paths but I do not like them anymore. I am preparing to make a new path right now. Hopefully, when I am done polishing off things, I would be able to start walking on my new path. (Read: I am planning to find a new job. I just have to give birth first. 3 months to go!) Have a nice day!

Hi Saphrina. It all depends on what you want to do in life. And what kind of person you are. Sometimes, even if the path disappears, we have to continue doing what we do if we know that it is the right thing to do. Know what I mean? Doing what you feel is right is more important. It will eventually lead you somewhere!

Lately I had many doubts about my path... is it what I really want? is this what will make ME happy?the reasonable decisions are not always the correct choices for answering our life's riddle. I feel sometimes like I am trying way too hard to stand on people's expectations and by that, I am missing my own goals. It is not that I am not happy at the moment, but I am scared that one day I will figure out that I missed something important and it will be too late to regret about it.
