Floating Along…

Are you drifting down the river of life? Aimlessly floating along until something happens or takes control? Do you have an idea of what is around the next bend? Do you even want to know?
We can set our sights on a goal, then begin rowing towards it. Our arms can become tired or the distance seem too great. But with that first stroke and each consecutive, you build momentum and become closer. Even in uncharted waters.
At times our vessel may veer off course, but if you constantly reevaluate your path and steer yourself back on track, you will continue to grow.
Or we can just carelessly and comfortably float along. To some, floating along is nice. No worries, no stress, no thinking required. Rarely does this aimless float bring us to the place of our dreams. Rarely does this constant drift stay careless.
Where are you headed?
