~:[CH15 - Day 11]:~ What We Never Planned

There wasn't much of a roadmap for the weekend, but we moved in the direction that we felt was right. A lot of unplanned moments in a life that is often very structured. My schedule is often set a month in advance, as when I finish a meeting, they pinpoint a date to block almost a year in advance. However, life is full of spontaneity and unplanned moments. People get sick, accidents happen, or unplanned celebrations could happen as well, however, the beauty in what is unplanned is that it adds a topping to the structure that already exists in life. As we wrapped up the weekend, accomplishing what we had hoped for, we also ended up with an unplanned stopped that took me down that unplanned path. In a tunnel, I found a staircase and I guess it was only fitting. I guess at times in life, these unplanned moments help us find those staircases that take us to a place we either hoped to arrive to or never planned on, as we discover a new path that may be what we never planned. It's okay. While we may leave our shadow behind, we emerge, discovering things about ourselves we never knew. It was a smooth trek home and as expected, I was exhausted when arriving home, however, I was content with how things went, even as unplanned as things were. There were moments to remember, moments to forget, but also experiences that I am glad that I had. Welcome those unplanned moments and see where they will take you, as you never know where that staircase in life will lead. Just take it one step at a time.
