I have had many forks in the road. I ran a business and was asked to run for City Council, I won and then had to sell the business. I never regretted the move. I have taken many forks and I have been very fortunate they have all been wonderful experiences. I will mention one other. I had taught cooking for a number of years and one day I heard by accident that Frances Blackwood who was the food writer of the Evening bulletin had retired. It was a job I always wanted, but food writers rarely retire. I immediately called the Bulletin went in for an interview and instead of getting the food writer I got my own Sunday column on food and the family. I wrote that column every Sunday until the Bulletin closed.

A fork in the road opens up new opportunity for learning…. very motivating
It’s not the destination, it’s the journey, and lots of forks mean lots of options. Aren’t we fortunate to live at a time and in a place that offers us choices!
How fun to land a writing opportunity bigger than you wanted and then loved. An inspiring fork in your road!
