Life is a journey that must be traveled no matter how bad the roads and accommodations.

The conditions are rarely the ones you would have chosen, and they are the ones you have. Rough ground and poor shelter are not proof that you took a wrong turn; they come with any long stretch of living. Waiting for smoother going is not one of the options, because the days pass whether or not you move through them.

Find something you have postponed until circumstances improve. Ask whether that improvement is actually coming, or whether it has quietly become a reason to stand still. Then take one modest step on the road as it is.
