I've often thought that no matter what zig-zag path I would have taken I would have ended up pretty much where I am. I guess we're offered suggestions throughout our lives and if we take them we move along faster to where we're 'going' through the maze. If we reject an offering the maze changes to suit the conditions and we're given different offerings. Finally, if, due to subborness, being self-absorbed, or [fill in the blank], we aren't open to suggestions then we get another chance to try things in heaven. .....so don't despair folks....I believe the universe is rooting for you!

LIke when I was in college and got a job in the East Asian Language Institute and met Carmen, who invited me to live at her house in Barcelona when I graduated. But when I got there, she promptly gave me one month to find somewhere else to live which is when I met Emmanuelle, a french girl living abroad who I shared an apartment with and was friends with my husband to be. Oh, and Belle Canto is one of my favorite books ever.
