there are a million steps

"...life is complex, and the idea that you can break it down or fix it in a few steps is rather silly.
The truth is there are a million steps, and we don’t even know what the steps are, and worse, at any given moment we may not be willing or even able to take them; and still worse, they are different for you and me and they are always changing. 
I have come to believe the sooner we find this truth beautiful, the sooner we will fall in love with the God who keeps shaking things up, keeps changing the path, keeps rocking the boat to test our faith in Him, teaching us to not rely on easy answers, bullet points, magic mantras, or genies in lamps, but rather rely on His guidance, His existence, His mercy, and His love."
-Donald Miller, Searching for God Knows What

  1. It's true. Life is more complicated than can be fixed by simplistic solutions. Usually it takes a combo of different factors, skills & circumstances to get things done & yet there is no right or wrong answer. The rights or wrongs will only be discovered upon retrospect.
    What a wonderful life. =)
