Wisdom? maybe....

No one knows where they are going but you get there faster if you stop looking back.

My words of wisdom for today... :)

  1. If you don't know where you came from how can you know where yer going?

  2. Heading forward but not in a straight line
    Branched destination just like a grapevine
    Our unique choices are kept us defined
    Some drinks water, and some drinks wine
    In a race for quality there's no finishing line

    Those who walk a solid line and not quack
    Will get there faster when they don’t look back

    We cut more distance using daylight track
    But we need light when it’s dark and black

    Have a clear vision and be your own guide
    Keep your eyes open and don’t be a blind
    It’s not too soon to know what's up ahead
    And it’s not too late to change your mind

  3. I once heard an older gentleman say, "You can't plow a straight furrow if you're always looking back." Those who have farming experience -- or just a little garden plot like me, know just how true this is! It wasn't until years later that I realized the origin of this statement. The Bible. Luke 9:62 says, "Jesus replied, 'No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.'" I agree with your literal statement that no one knows where they are going (and most of the time I'm very thankful for that because I couldn't handle knowing the future!) but I've found that it really doesn't matter where we go as long as we are following God.
