Routed

Failures are finger posts on the road to achievement.

I love road trips. My dream vacation is to get in the car, have a general sense of what direction to head (usually South or West) and then -- just go. Whatever I see I was supposed to see and the things I miss I missed for a reason. I like to be aware of where I'm headed, but flexible enough to change direction or take a detour if the right opportunity presents itself.

I find it interesting that "detour" is "routed" spelled backwards. Well, not exactly, but close. That must mean something.
