The Way Is Forward
On the road of life, we are hopefully driving to our chosen destination. It is important to drive towards our destination with our minds clear and with balanced emotions. Knowing where we are in each moment as we drive progressively forward. Each moment as we drive forward our eyes are dancing within the presence of the current space of travel, as we progressively move forward.
As we travel this road of our lives, we understand we must be present in each moment to be able to read the posted signs. They are our guides, along with their useful signals pointing us to our separate destinations. They keep us aware with assurity we are traveling on the life road we have chosen. We may briefly glance at the rear-view mirror, but we must be careful not to become fixated and pulled into the experiences of what has passed. To become fixated in the mirror of our past will cause us to lose our awareness of the clues within our present surrounding. As we lose awareness of where we are and where we are headed, we become prone for going off our chosen road and crashing. We need self-trust as we proceed from the past and toward our future. This self- trust is our acceptance of the lesson we have learned from the experience of what now has passed. We can now with our self-trust enjoy what we have learned, as it is what carries us from the past into the current space we are in. In doing so we can relax and appreciate where we are, knowing where we are going, as we are driven by the fuel given to us from our past. This is enjoying the drive of your life.
