Thanks so much ! =)

Answer 1

It's a lifes lessons parable....it means that sometimes you have to go thru some things/experience somethings before you understand who/where you are in your own life.

Similar to 'you have to crawl before you walk'.

Answer 2

It has a couple of meanings actually =

One, if you don't keep searching you may never find your answer - follow your dreams - they may lead you somewhere big!

Two - You learn by your mistakes - if not for failure you would have no chance of improvement - most products are the results of years of failure - infact many products are the results of failure on another expected result.

         hope this helps.

Answer 3

It means, hold on...let me re-read it....ok now I am just confused.

I think maybe it means you keep taking the easy way in life, so you dont take chances....and if you dont take chances you cant really be happy.

So you need to take some chances in life, and if you fail ( get lost ) then at least you tried, and eventually you will find your way!

Answer 4

metaphorically, that means dont get distracted when reaching your goals.

Answer 5

You need to check the grammer first. Its wrong. A sentence never opens with "If" word.

Answer 6

even if you don't think you're lost, you might still never find your way.

Answer 7

you wont get to your dreams without messing up or making mistakes.

Answer 8

Sometimes you have to get lost to find where you are going

its kinda like you learn from your mistakes kinda thing

a trial and error type thing

Answer 9

I think it means that sometimes you don't find something unless you get lost. You know like sometimes you may be driving around and you are following exact directions to a place but you can't find it. All of a sudden you are lost you don't know where you are and then you turn the corner and there sits the place you have been looking for. - So that's not to say that you can't find something unless you get lost, its just that sometimes, unless you do get lost you won't find what you are looking for. Understand? :)

Answer 10

This is just an assupmtion so basically it's useless but hey sometimes quotes are meant to have multiple meanings so you can interpret the way that fits you. Heres what I think:

If you don't take chances you may never get to your dreams.

OR

If you don't ever start you wont get lost but nor will you ever reach your goals. Pretty much a reitirration of my first guess..

Just a thought haha, this is the way that fits me but yeah sorry, I'm not exactly sure.

Answer 11

"getting lost" is how we grow as people.  Because when we "lose" our way in life -- we have to do a lot of soul searching and thinking, which then allows one to figure everything out.

Answer 12

i kinda see it as, if u dont end up making mistakes you wont find out who u really are. its the mistakes that make u realise just who u really are.

Answer 13

Sometimes in life we get off track and aren't sure what direction to head in.

If we're not sure what direction to take we often take twists and turns that we may have not taken before. This sends us in a new direction where we may discover a totally different path that brings us satisfaction and joy.

This could be spiritual (as I discovered when I became a Christian), career, or relationship paths.

Answer 14

Just because you don't know where you're going, it doesn't mean you won't get there.

Answer 15

You have a goal to reach - and you need to find a way to achieve it.  By making mistakes (losing your way) - you gain experience and wisdom.  These things will help you again - to get on the right path to achieving your goal.  Mistakes are the "fine tuning" - they let you know what you do not want to do or let happen again. If you never "get lost" - when you reach your goal - you may find out - it is not what you wanted. ♥

Answer 16

it means you have to mistakes and experience in order to grow and acheive...
