=============================================

Even the best laid out plans can go astray from time to time. The best thing to do is have a backup plan and that plan is to be in the flow and enjoy. We cannot control everything, no matter how good we are at planning all the details. There comes a time when we have to know we have done our best, let go and see what happens. My experience has shown me that sometimes what happens in the end is better than anything I could have planned.

Although it is important to plan, it is also important to plan to enjoy. I notice sometimes I can get so caught up in the details and I forget that part of what life is about is letting it happen. We can only plan so much and then life takes over. We should always have a backup plan to be in the flow and enjoy.

"The absence of alternatives clears the mind marvelously." Henry Kissinger

"It is the characteristic excellence of the strong man that he can bring momentous issues to the fore and make a decision about them. The weak are always forced to decide between alternatives they have not chosen themselves." Dietrich Bonhoeffer
