ONE MORE JOURNEY AROUND THE SUN
Life is a journey to be experienced
full of adventure, love, hope and human kindness—not a destination as we follow
our bliss. And it’s also about the company that joins us along the way
and walks beside us at every fork in our path. Some enter for a reason, a season or a lifetime. And some of the most challenging paths lead to the most
satisfying moments. Take the road less traveled at times to discover
serendipity.
We should always be looking forward and charting a path, but
always testing the winds of fortune to find alternate routes. Embrace change and the journey into the unknown because
change is the only certainty and resistance is futile. Triumphs encourage us and disappointments strengthen our
resolve. There may even be a few occasions
when we need to turn around and walk it back.
Everyone’s path is different, so we must be wary of judging
others. If we take the time to walk their path for a while, we may
find our judgement dissolving. And if we’re paying attention to the challenges and the
people we encounter, we’ll never lose if we don’t lose the lessons learned
which help to develop our spiritual character. That’s the human job description.
Understand the difference between seeking temporary
happiness and eternal joy. Joy is found internally while happiness is based on external
things. Every waking day is a new creation and a new
opportunity. People that know you today as you have matured know a much
different person than you were in the past. Live life so that you can reflect on yours at any time and
smile. Enjoy the ride because paths were made for adventurous journeys!
In the end, we keep only the good memories of our journey on a short leash and leave only footprints on the hearts of those we’ve loved to accompany along
life’s path.
