The jigsaw puzzle contains 1,000 pieces. The photo on the box cover does not portray the actual completed puzzle. The box contains a story of a murder. The story describes the scene and action.
You dump the contents on your table, turn the pieces picture up, and proceed to find the border pieces.
So far, so good.
But now you begin assembling the pieces with no clear idea of the big picture.
Life imitates art someone said years ago.
You try to imagine the type of person you strive to be. You may imagine and list goals to achieve.
But you assemble your life without seeing the big picture. You can’t foresee the surprises lying in wait. You don’t understand at first how all the pieces fit.
Then slowly piece-by-piece the picture becomes clearer. This part fits with that part. Relationships form. Direction becomes clearer simply by living a day at a time and putting it together.
