I have a handful of metaphors and sayings that are important to me, "wash the dishes" being the most important one.
Recently I blurted out "no wrong turns" and I quickly realized that captures a new part of me. Not that I don't make wrong turns; Google Maps reminds me of that constantly. What "no wrong turns" means to me is that I feel that no turns I take are wrong. Some of my most inspiring days on my wanderabout have been when I took a turn I wasn't planning on.
The metaphor "no wrong turns" also has given me the freedom to make mistakes, to make wrong turns, to choose a different route than I had planned. It's fundamental to why I now call what I'm doing a wanderabout.
Here he goes again on that crazy stuff. Just wanted to document these thoughts.
