Thinking Out Loud: There Are Many Paths

“It’s one thing to feel that you are on the right path, but it’s another to think that yours is the only path.” ~  Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

NOTE: Do you know someone who believes his/her way is the only way? I do. I suffered from that disease when I was younger. Experience taught me, often through painful lessons, that my way was not the only way. When I understood there are as many paths as there are people the world became a friendly place. Instead of trying to argue with them, I began to try to understand them hoping they could teach me something I didn’t know. An open mind opens us up to multiple possibilities.
