The Beginning You Didn’t Plan

Jul 20, 2026
Written by Kaleathia Murphy

Who knows what’s going to happen in life?

We make decisions based on the information we have about ourselves at the time. That’s all any of us can really do. Then life moves forward and throws its curveballs and we adjust.

Life doesn’t guarantee a worry-free or carefree journey. But it does offer something just as valuable: great stories and powerful lessons, if you allow yourself to see them that way.

I went to college. I even went to graduate school. And when I look at my life now, I realize something interesting I’m not working in my specialized field. But somehow, I’m still doing something I always wanted to do.

I didn’t plan it this way.

And yet, I love how it worked out.

Life has a way of taking the pieces we thought belonged somewhere else and rearranging them into something that fits us even better.

Looking back, I can see that I’m exactly where I need to be.

And the best part?

This is only the beginning.
