Enjoy the journey

I have changed my view of the journey. I have almost certainly wronged many on my journey, some that have been precious to me, some that I never saw again and didn't know I had wronged. I wronged them when I spoke as if we were on different journeys, or different paths, or in different places. In some respects we are and have been, but I am coming to see it differently these days, to see that we are all on the same journey; the journey that leads through life to death and then...whatever it is that you think comes next. Where we differ is in the direction that we are facing and the paths we take. The path of this journey we are on is a wide place. There are routes that lead to light and fulfillment, forgiveness and love and we are all on that journey somewhere. What I see now is that we are roped together with those we are connected to in life, your direction tugs at me and mine at you, some people we are bound to lead us onward, helping us take good but difficult paths that we might not be able to take alone, sometimes those we are bound to power on ahead of us in the same direction and we are swept along, sometimes those we are bound to pull us away from the path. But the important thing is that we are on the same journey, it is not us and them but WE.
