Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

...go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.  ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

That's point isn't it?  We shouldn't just follow the path, especially in the last years that we can still decide much of our life.  We must make our own map, we must blaze a trail, if not for our own well being, then for those who will follow us, like our children.

"We have lived that path before. We know the outcome. Today is different. Today we must use our minds and make our own map. If not for us, then for those who follow, like our children. A little more difficult? Chance if failure?  Yes. But that is what we are challenged to give our children. That is what Zeb Pike and so many others gave us." From an email I sent this morning. -Chris
