Do you ever look back and feel amazed at just how interconnected everything is? How one seemingly small decision can create a domino effect of sorts for your entire life? I think about that a lot. (For example, how I met my husband. We didn’t share social circles, we weren’t in the same major-or even the same graduating class- but we both decided to take a very difficult elective “just because.” And THEN we only met because I was running late to the lab for that class and ended up sitting at the same table as him. If I’d decided to wait another year to take the class, or had actually made it to lab on time, our paths may have never crossed. Crazy, right?
Maybe it’s because hindsight is 20/20, but I am constantly amazed (and grateful) for how everything works out- and how it all works out exactly how it is supposed to. Reminds me of a quote from John Muir- “when we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe.”
What about you? Have you ever looked back and looked at how your entire path brought you to exactly where you were meant to be?
