Life, karma, and fate unfold in Kevin Robinson’s tale
Kevin Robinson shares a reflective personal essay from Lawrence, Kansas, tracing his lifelong tussle with predestination, luck, and disappointment. He recounts educational goals derailed by a spinal injury, ventures in three businesses and a nonprofit, and a recurring sense that life’s twists resemble a perpetual merry-go-round. He notes humor, faith, and resilience guiding his search for meaning as he invites readers to consider what might be waiting around the next bend.
