Often I have not known where I was going until I was already there. I have had my share of desires and goals, but my life has come to me or I have gone to it mainly by way of mistakes and surprises. Often I have received better than I deserved. Often my fairest hopes have rested on bad mistakes. I am an ignorant pilgrim, crossing a dark valley. And yet for a long time, looking back, I have been unable to shake off the feeling that I have been led – make of that what you will.
― Wendell Berry, Jayber Crow
Wonderful Quote and image to accompany it 😉
Thank you! The last two quotes fought me, but this one went together like a dream. Glad you enjoyed it.
I saw today’s quote and happily sighed . Wendell Berry is the perfect poet for self-reflection and growth .
Yes! Thank you. He turned 80 last year and is such an inspiration. Glad to share this with you.
