Let Your Journey Be Your Destination
Let Your Journey Be Your Destination
By Viola Woolcott
Sometimes we accidentally enter into the Now, the present moment. No matter where we are, what we do, maybe things like skating, skiing, playing golf, doing yoga or we may even be in the “flow” of a conversation. All of a sudden our activity aligns with us and we are in the flow of that moment. We are aware of something sustaining us.
By accident we can enter into the Now emotionally when we look at the sunrays breaking through the clouds or we catch the light as it shades trees in a different way. We enter into the Now physically because that flow is part of the Now. From time to time we enter into the Now intellectually, when we have an insight and an epiphany comes.
We could be walking along and out of the blue have a sense of understanding, which came to us because at that very moment everything integrated. This real Now is a perfect integration and it is a dynamic mutual union of all the creative forces. If it deeply moved us emotionally at all, or emotionally deeply moved us, we want to begin to no longer experience this activity accidentally. We want to be capable to live like that and KNOW that kind of love, KNOW that kind of insight and we want to be in the flow as well as being in this direct relationship with all else that is in the flow. The solution is to move from this accidental divine discontent to a deliberate one.
We miss the truth that what we are from moment to moment is what determines our experience of the moment we are in. Beginning to appreciate that the moments themselves become beautiful reflections as well as expressions of ourselves to ourselves, than we learn to be present to ourselves and discover that this is what the Path is.
