Detours
For the last several weeks, I have taken a detour in defining what "I will be when I grow up." The mission never really changed, but I started to rethink the way I was going to get there. And while the alternate route in and of itself has proven to be a mere detour, it has helped to clarify how I will make vision into reality.
I guess in this regard, I am not unlike most people. As we all know "sometimes life gets in the way" of even the best-laid plans, dreams and choices. But it is what we do with the knowledge learned during those detours that makes them more valuable than they would seem to be at first glance.
So whether it's in life or in your travels, metaphorically or practically, embrace the back roads and circuitous routes. What they may uncover is worth the alternate path.
Now, after a recently completed multi-million dollar renovation to the Mediterranean structure, the resort entices more than ever.
