“Don’t fear the future, they say. Embrace what’s coming your way, they say. For your life’s path to unveil itself to you, you need to open up to it. And it’s true, you cannot become the master of your fate, let alone reach into the depth of your soul without accepting what is and opening up to whatever life has in store for you. Yet, if you don’t learn to tell the difference between a life lesson, and a bullet to be dodged, your life’s path might turn out to be rather short, and largely painful.”
