“Where do you see yourself in five years?”
Isn’t that an insane question to ask anyone?
Who are we to know?
How can anyone predict what’s coming next?
Of course, we can plan—
what we want to do,
where we want to go,
what we want to see—
but plans change
as days go by.
And sometimes,
they crumble
without our permission.
And sometimes,
that is how we arrive
somewhere better.
Yes, paths change—
and somehow
we find
our way.
