One-time, years ago during a night out in Amsterdam, I experienced that there were several live shows being promoted to all begin at the same time. It was obvious that I’d have to choose the venue I liked best over the others. As showtime approached, however, it became obvious that it was the same show that several street vendors were promoting as separate events. So, there really was no choice after all.
Just like that, I am repeatedly being shown that although life appears as many paths and options, they all collapse into one way forward when the destined time has come. There is not even the option of not proceeding.
Just as the hooked fish eventually surrenders to the fisherman once exhausting all options for escape, the fully ripened soul surrenders to the “Fisher of Men”.
