Is this how it's supposed to be?

So, there you stand, embracing life as it's taking place every day. When you're jolted awake by reality! You thought you were awake before but all of the sudden you see a new you and a new path that wasn't exposed before; a path that you weren't capable of seeing because you never considered anything remotely close to it as an option for you.

Funny, isn't it, how one person or situation can cause a moment of revelation and your eyes are suddenly opened to a different direction that's available.

There should be a name for this split second in life when your options expand.

You have a choice to continue down the path that was comfortable and happy, that you were already headed, or to take a road you've never travelled and see if it will bring you even more joy. It takes a brave and adventurous soul to take the leap of faith and step off the beaten path.

Have you ever met a person with whom there is an undeniable connection?  Someone you know (with every atom of your being) that you've known forever and have been waiting your whole life to meet all at the same time?
