When you're in the desert

“‘Once you get into the desert, there’s no going back,’ said the camel driver. ‘And, when you can’t go back, you have to worry only about the best way of moving forward. The rest is up to Allah, including the danger.’” - The Camel Driver, The Alchemist, by Paulo Coehlo.

The storm, the desert, the whirlwind, the sea - it’s all the same. A vastness of blended opportunity, stress, threats, and demands. Once you’re in it, your only move is forward. Fortune, your fickle friend, takes care of the rest.
