“You're out in the cold,
Sometimes,
As far as you can see,
Misty.
You want to run
Into the sun,
The road is lost,
Sand shifty.
But suddendly, out of the blue,
Some kind of magic
Pushes you through!
You don't know when,
How or why,
But someday can take off, fly!”

Mike Oldfield (1953) English musician, multi-instrumentalist

fork-in-the-road moments and I didn’t even see it coming. I had no idea.”
