Life is what happens ...

"Life is what happens while we're busy making other plans" - John Lennon wrote in one of his songs. I catch myself trying to create a seperate path of my own making rather than following life's journey as created by a more wise source - the source of all. I have to catch myself at times and just let life happen without trying to control it or manipulate it.

When I look back, I usually see that my own will has led me astray. While the good choices were there, I ignored them.

I see others do that all the time as well. Pushing their way along trying to be in control, or an illusion of control. Little steamrollers. Vainly projecting an aire that they know what the hell they're doing, but in the meantime life is happening and they're missing out. Running amuck in silly theories and surrounding themselves with even sillier company that upholds the self-deception.

Busy making other plans while life happened.
