The E Word

Because that’s the way it works.

When you’re searching for something you overlook, you overthink.

You exhaust and end up finding nothing. You end up lost.

When you’re not searching for something and walk along your path,

something might take you by surprise.

You may stumble across it or trip over it on your way-

a soulmate, a hobby, a sacred place whispering your name

or you may not.

But you see the difference between the first and the second

isn’t the end result, it’s the method.

Expectations are self-destruction’s deadliest weapon.
