As we are growing up, we each are shown "The Path(tm)*." The Path(tm) is presented to us as that which works for everyone, and will no doubt do the same for us. However, it often takes being knocked off The Path(tm) in one way or another for us as people to start searching for our own path. If something hadn't happened to knock us off, we would probably still be walking it to this day. The Path(tm) at that point becomes something that may or may not work for others, but certainly isn't quite for us. Does that make sense? Am I articulating that well? Any thoughts?
*The path(tm) is a trademark of me. Being the kind fellow that I am, feel free to use it as you see fit. If you happen to be rich though, I withhold the right to retract said privilege and live the American Dream of lawsuit bliss. Then again, that would require the money for a lawyer... darn... /silliness
