Follow your path

In New Zealand during my time off gave me a lot of 'alone' time, time to think, scary i know. A lot of the other travellers i have met have asked me if i get lonely or if it feels strange to not know anyone and whilst it is a shame at times to not share the experiences i am having with my friends or family i know that its the right thing for me to be doing with my life at the moment and being satisfied where you are whatever the situation is a hard challenge for all of us. I have a t-shirt with a slogan on it that reads 'Follow Your Path'.
I think its important to each follow our own path. Throughout our lives many things will come along that influence the paths we take. As a youth worker one of your aims is to be a positive influence and guide for the young people you work with but overall really the challenge is to make the young people choose the right things for themselves. So i guess as i thought over these things on my long walks down paths, climbing over and around things and following and ignoring signs i thought of asking you to think as well, what things decide your path. For me my 2 main important things in life are to live to please God and to help other people, these are the things that influence where my path leads and it's at the times i feel i'm doing these things the best that i feel most satisfied and most happy.
