A guarantee of our future. When we are young, it can be so easy to be in a state of flux as to what our lives might hold for us. It is a time of exploration, with all potential opportunities ahead that we can ponder and then, ideally, narrow down to what our passions lead us to pursue. Yet, in doing this, it becomes imperative we have the support, encouragement, challenge, and accountability to see it through. When this has been absent, it then turns into drifting along or, at minimum, not recognizing the need to fill a void we don’t always want to acknowledge…or rectify.
