Thank you for this! This beautiful piece reminds me that not reaching a specific goal isn't necessarily a setback. Interestingly, the setbacks tend to unravel a bunch of opportunities. In that redirection, we can find something more aligned with who we're meant to become. Otherwise, we would never discover new depths of creativity, adaptability, and self-understanding.

Another interesting post! This has happened to me often in life -- sometimes in a small way, sometimes much bigger. Sometimes not reaching your original destination -- whether while traveling or just in some endeavor -- can lead to a serendipitous outcome you least expected. And that can be a very good thing.
