What choice can you make? When you are lost and do not know which direction to choose to find your way.
How could you make a choice anyway when your destination is just a hazy dreamy accumulation of images not quite up to being a vision?
Mostly we are unaware of being lost. We are living our lives and making the best of it and that is good enough. Lost in thought, not in place.
That works for the majority. And they are better off today then they might have been in the past.
What works for the rest of us is the discovery that we can have and use a compass. There is no GPS here.
It is one thing to find a direction and have a destination, it is another thing to move along that path everyday.
But if you don't then the realized potential of your life will be lost.
Lost to time.
This is not about the Eric Hoffer book but he still might turn up from time to time.
