Life's little detours can become major highways in no time at all!
Known for my forays off the beaten path I often choose to give up doing the hard thing in favor of the fun thing. I have the ability to focus and spend intense hours doing something I enjoy, but have always believed that there were things I could not, or maybe would not, do.
It seems the universe is tricky. Instead of forcing me to buckle down, which maybe it tried and failed, it has taken that old approach wise parents and teachers have used for eons.
While I was madly doing those things I love, it reached out and hooked me! Showing me how something I thought would be boring and awful, terrible and impossible, was relevant!
Not only relevant, but interesting, fascinating, intriguing!
One would think that by my age these types of tactics would be unnecessary, but by the world's standards I have the interest span and temperament of a child.
After forty years, I am finally reading those classics I swore I hated...and I love them!
You would not believe how I got here!
