“The worst labyrinth is not that intricate form that can entrap us forever, but a single and precise straight line.”
—Jorge Luis Borges
Jorge Luis Borges and I are in complete agreement.
A life that is not constantly shifting, changing, twisting, and tuning is a stagnant one.
Change is to be sought out, chased after, and embraced. We should always be looking to expand and extend the scope of our lives by trying new things.
Going to new places.
Doing hard things.
Resisting ease.
I agree with Jorge Luis Borges. Avoid the straight line at all costs.
It’s an especially good reminder after a day filled with odd, frustrating, complex, and inexplicable travel encounters.
At least it wasn’t a straight line.
