You Are the Journey: 4 Poetic Reminders to Soothe Your Soul

You Are the Journey: 4 Poetic Reminders to Soothe Your Soul

It’s easier to respect, even trust the journey when you think of yourself as the journey.

When YOU are the journey and the practice, you open yourself up to seeing guidance everywhere, light in everything, evidence of your own progression and potential with each step you take, in the direction of what feels meaningful and true to you.

“There is no greater journey than the one that you must take to discover all of the mysteries that lie within you.” – Michelle Sandlin

Letting yourself be a journey is a practice in itself and one that releases the pressure of achievement, replacing it with the joy of allowing.

Think of your life as a broader practice and yourself, as a living, breathing expression of the life source. This perspective makes it easier to be still in moments of chaos because there’s this sense that all is well, even after everything.

Presence starts to breed progress. Perfection is defined by progression.

Here are some thoughts on being the journey, and allowing yourself to live the journey of becoming.

“Sometimes I wake up and my heart weighs 200 pounds and my soul feels 10,000 years old. And then I realize that I’m a journey made of stardust, not just a person.” — Tanya Markul
