Without a destination how will you know when you have arrived?

May 26, 2014 By Karen Main 6 Comments

Destination quote

For just a moment imagine getting into your car and driving off with no idea of where you are going?  No map?  No destination? You have no clear idea on where you are going or what it will be like when you get there. You drive all day until you become too tired to keep going, yet still […]
