And to What Do I Owe this...

Life's journey is a privilege. The rules of navigation are unknown. Traveling this path requires a sense of willing adventure, patience and a lot of asking. 

The aspects of willing adventure occur as life is unrolled with every step.

The degree of patience is an internal acquisition. One needs to experience life and all its up and downs before a minimal degree of patience can be stashed for later use.

The inquiring part. Who do we ask? When do we ask? How do we ask and how often do we ask? What do we ask? 

This answer lies within the journey down life's path. And the cycle of the journey starts again.
