Trust your path and be always on your way [book excerpt]

But life is not a static object or a one-way-street. It’s an ever-growing ever-evolving movement, a fleeting process that will flow in whichever direction it can, just because it simply can, and I’d like to mention amore fati; trusting your fate. Every single time something crashed my plans or dreams, I was forced to write a new plan, new goals, and take a different road. I cursed the moon and the stars and all the people walking on this earth who were in my way, because I thought I was being challenged. I thought I was being stopped from reaching my goal. But I can see it crystal clear now. Look back on your life, a month, six months, ten years, and you will see how it all connects. Every time you were forced to change your ways it led you to something that led you to the next dot and suddenly you see how it’s a beautiful well-crafted story with wonders and defeats, leaving and arriving, and that’s why they call it a life story and not just a life. Life will keep redirecting you until you’re on the right path, and it will feel like hurdles or obstacles in your way, but it’s all in your favour. You just need to trust your story. Trust your path. Trust your place.

So I know you sometimes feel like you’ve lost track of that well-paved road you think you ought to take to get to where you want to be, but you’re exactly in the right place exactly where you are. Trust the process of how things go and don’t fight them; don’t curse them. No story is worth telling without the twists and turns. Make them count instead.
Now go be where you are, and don’t be sorry.
