The Path
“The road need not be paved in gold to find the treasures at its end.” Alan Brennert
The journey of life is full of twists and turns, all meant to bring us one step closer to the one we are becoming.
Sometimes the path makes no sense. Not to the mind. Not to the world.
At times like these I rely on my inner compass, my soul to help me chart a course to the next unknown. Not needing the end result (don’t get me wrong, I’d love to know it, but have long surrendered that notion😂) helps me with my overwhelm. Sometimes - and sometimes the wanting to understand, for closure, or the last word is stronger than I care to admit.
I have found myself in places I didn’t plan, carrying lessons I didn’t ask for (or at least in my mind I can’t imagine asking), facing endings I didn’t see coming.
And still —there is a rhythm beneath it all, an intelligence beneath the ache, a quiet asking…”what is here for me” and when in those moments I can be present and aware, things do flow easier. Granted, that’s not always the case.
But…. IF I STAY PRESENT, IF I STAY SOFT, IF I CAN TRUST THE UNFOLDING…
Then I come to realize, not everything has to be figured out.
Some of it is meant to be felt —lived, breathed, witnessed —
in my own sacred timing.
My journey has not been a mistake.
It is a remembrance in motion. And I wouldn’t have it any other way!
