Lost versus Not Found

You are lost if you are trying to get somewhere, and lose your way.  You are not lost if you do not know where you are going.  You are where you are.  Lost implies a found.  Not there implies a there.

The process of determining a route is a logistical one, if you know what you want, and the possibilities for travel.  If you want to be a CEO or a fashion photographer, or the biggest dope dealer in Chicago, then you have an end point, and the task is determining the middle.  Everything that moves you in the right direction is good, and that which does not is bad.

But what is the process for being, better?  What if the goal is internal, not external?  What are the way-markers?  How does one define them, see them, follow them?  What is time well spent, and time simply wasted?

Time tells, I suppose.  Time tells.  The feedback is subtle, but not non-existent.

This has been an odd day.  Odd days are often useful.

I don’t know if any of this makes sense, but this is what is flowing through me at the moment.
