Maps have arrived today, for the hills and trails that make up The Ridgeway – the 85 mile trail I’ll be completing for Refuge and the ManKind Initiative. It’s exciting to look at them and get a crystal clear representation of the route!

To navigate, it’s not the map or even the route that’s most important, though. So it is, too, with life.

If you can’t figure out where you are, a map isn’t all that helpful. Knowing the route is useless, if you’re not willing to go the distance. If the map is out of date, you’ll need to adjust.

A sense of of the right direction is paramount.

And resolve.
