going up around the bend

Sometimes I wonder where I am going. I can see my way clear for a ways but then either the path turns or leads over a ridge and I am uncertain. It's not so much about choices but rather about uncertainty after the die is cast; I have crossed the Rubicon, I am not standing in the woods with two paths diverging. I am on the path, the sign post ahead reassures me of that. It's just I cannot see where it leads. I don't think it happens as often as we imagine. Most of life consists of schedules and routines. We know what we are doing this afternoon, this evening, tomorrow, next week. Generally it's the same things we did last evening, yesterday and the week before. All very predictable and known. It's only at the start of some new endeavor when we don't know what this new thing requires or what experiences it holds.
I started a Project Management certification class last night. It's going to take me six months to complete and I am quite nervous about it. I don't know what I will do with it once I'm done. I'm just focusing on developing a new life schedule to make sure I am successful in the endeavor. I'm going up around the bend.
