Plans can be helpful, they can provide trajectory, purpose and achievements, and yet life seldom goes according to plans. It can be hard work sometimes, forgiving yourself for life not going to plan, but even the plans that never come close to coming true can provide us with surprising materials to work with. Self-forgiveness, seeing the beauty in old plans even if they will never come to be, can create pathways for new art and new dreams.
