"It would be nice to travel if you knew where you were going and where you would live at the end or do we ever know, do we ever live where we live, we're always in other places, lost, like sheep"

About this Quote

This quote by Janet Frame talks to the idea of life as a journey, and the unpredictability that features it. We may have a destination in mind, however we never understand what will happen along the method. We might never know where we will wind up, or if we will ever genuinely feel at home. We are constantly in a state of flux, roaming from location to place, never ever quite sure of our destination. We may feel lost, like sheep without a shepherd, but this becomes part of the charm of life. We can never be specific of what lies ahead, however we can take comfort in the knowledge that we are all on the same journey, which we are never truly alone.
