We can view these unanticipated moments as interruptions or as opportunities to embrace the unexpected. As Shahnaz Habib says, interruptions are also part of the journey.

Not till we are lost, in other words, not till we have lost the world, do we begin to find ourselves, and realize where we are and the infinite extent of our relations.
- Thoreau
2/2

-Pico Iyer
