If you need to get lost to find your way, better turn off your GPS.

+


If you usually hang out this bizarre kaleidoscopic little corner of cyberspace (which I know you do, because I’ve actually been spying on you ;) , then if goes without saying I’m very much into popular/ancient wisdom. Actually, it’s extremely common to find myself threading thoughts which revolve around popular sayings… which is kind of oxymoronic, now I think about it (the part that it goes without saying I’m very much into how the saying goes).Whoa.

Before I digress once again and stray further from my original reasoning, here’s the saying I thought about in the first place: “You have to get lost before you can find yourself“. This nugget of wisdom always crossed my mind as some kind of deeply meaningful statement, infused with a highly elusive amount of Truth. Well, I was just leisurely browsing around some Sat Nav Reviews, and this insane(ly) remarkable sentence occurred to me:

“If you need to get lost before finding your way, better turn off the GPS”.

stop finding, start searching?

stop finding, start searching?

What can I say, I’m just impressed with my own keen sense of overarching… ingenuity, or something like that. In any circumstance, I’m should probably order some couple thousand bumper stickers with this awe-inspiring sentence, and it’ll get me not only overnight fortune, but also a great chance to inspire and enlighten my fellow humans. Otherwise, I should probably lay off the caffeine before writing more posts… or should I? Maybe I could just get myself some kind of mental Satnav, to kep my reasoning from going astray all the time. Do you suppose such a device has already been invented?
