Your Journey


There is a journey awaiting you


It comes in truth and promise


When you reach the point of not knowing who you are or where to go


This most precious but often painful passage is the journey of yourself


You will travel to places never before visited,


Where you meet unspoken fears and unearth buried truths


You will climb high and perilous mountains...


Those that rise up from inside yourself


You will explore forgotten waters held deep in the sea of your soul


You will be stranded in the wilderness and find a way through pathless land


You will be lost before you are found...You will be empty before you are full


You will cry the deep sobs of the earth


and tears of rain will cleanse the house around your heart


In time...because life, like birth and death, knows its own time


Your fears and struggles and unknowing will be transformed


You will become a mountain place where eagles soar


You will become a reflecting pool


which sees and knows the mysteries of your life


Your heart will be light like a butterfly


as you follow the currents of its true desires


The flight of the honeybee will be yours


as you seek the nectar of what brings sweeteness to your daily life


Most of all you will become who you truly are


Your life will hold truth and promise and meaning


And the heart of the heavens will hold your heart.
