The question can apply to ourselves individually or as a group—where do we go from here? At birth we inherited a set of circumstances, and from that moment on our experience depends on how we adapt to opportunities.

The words “fate” and “destiny” have always held appeal to me. Not for wanting to believe in them, but their concepts themselves have been alluring…that there is something grand I can join.

That grandeur is the universe, with all its encompassing chaos and beauty. The opportunity of reality is what all of us collectively make it, and while that might be daunting, it is also limitless in possibility.
