I love this! As a small analogy I think of the time I walked the Camino de Santiago by myself. 500 miles across Northern Spain. Sure, I packed a backpack and bought a plane ticket. But from the moment I landed in Spain, other than a vague idea of how to begin, everything else was unplanned. Each day for the next 40 days I didn't know who I would meet. I didn't know where I would sleep. I didn't know what I would eat. I didn't know for sure how far I would walk. I'm a planner, but the experience was exhilarating! Each day was wide open and full of possibilities. I just went with the flow.
Thank you sooooooo much for sharing! Such a fabulous experience as well as analogy for what it means to step into the unknown. Which really happens in each moment. And I will have to admit I am a bit jealous for I've always wanted to venture out on a walkabout!
