This is because a journey must bring a teaching, an aggrandizement, allowing us to be shaped by it and that when we finish it, we will not be the same as when we started it. With that, he says that we should not choose the journey that we must follow, because we will always choose the most comfortable one, which may not provide us with any knowledge. However, we must be chosen by the journey, because in this way we will evolve.
