Plotting Your Journey

I think that while you are living life, sitting on a plane or driving on the highway, those are times where you as a character should plot your next move. Decide what you will do next in order to reach your goal, or maybe you just need to make a goal. When you write a story you don't want to waste the characters time, or rather, the audiences time. We may not have a room full of hundreds of people waiting to see what's next, but we do have a creator who wants us to chose what is right. He is the greatest audience of all. He may know the ending, but we don't. I think that fact makes watching humanity exciting for him. He knows redemption will come. He wrote it down before time began.  God invented our stories in the quiet nothingness of infinity. When we feel we are in the black holes in between action we should be planning for the future. Not that relaxing or waitig is bad, or detrimental to our lives. Sometimes we are forced into a period of waiting. But neglecting an opportunity to prepare and reflect is a loss on our parts. Anything less than being proactive and we are wasting our own time.
