When we don't know where we are going.......


“If you know where you are going, you’re not going to find anything interesting.” – Michael Levitt, Nobel Prize winner in Chemistry,2013.

I came across this quote when I was surfing through a twitter page of nobel laureates & this got me thinking.

Sometimes we are scared to take a leap or to step out from our comfort zone because we are terrified of the outcome, or where it will lead us. According to the quotation above, he was one person among many who didn’t  know where he was going. Apparently he won.

There’s a beauty in this, a wonder to make us strong enough to take the leap. Not knowing where we are going is like painting a sketch. We have an idea about how it will turn out, yet we carefully select our canvas and colours to paint it to be vibrant.
