Answer:
He is trying to convey the idea that our journey is already prepared, waiting for us to teach us a life lesson.
Explanation:
To paraphrase Salak, we can say that we should not undergo an easy journey and that it will not add anything to our lives. 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.

My fingers lingered almost unconsciously on the familiar leaves and blossoms which had just come forth to greet the sweet southern spring. I did not know what the future held of marvel or surprise for me.

In this excerpt, taken from "The Story of My Life" by Helen Keller, the answer that best describes the imagery is option number four "sensory details appeal to the reader's sense of touch".
Since, in means “not” and sense means “to feel,” this means that insensibility is when you are in the state of no feeling. You are unconscious and are not aware of what is going on. I used the Latin prefixes to figure out my meaning.
