We are not living in a world where all roads are radii of a circle and where all, if followed long enough, will therefore draw gradually nearer and finally meet at the centre.

Rather we live in a world where every road, after a few miles, forks into two, and each of those into two again, and at each fork you must make a decision.

…I do not thing that all who choose wrong roads perish; but their rescue consists in being put back on the right road

- C.S Lewis
