Create the Way

"One thing:  you have to walk and create the way

by your walking you will not find a ready-made path."

OSHO

When we follow a ready made path, life appears to be easier; but in fact, we may be following a lengthy detour.  Authenticity awaits our foot print upon the untrodden soil.  We will wander in numerous directions, acquiring the skills and insights to propel us further down our singular pathway.

Distractions appear as beautiful garden paths, and we may wander astray.  Boulders may temporarily block our progress until we discover a way to proceed.  In the midst of density, we hear our calling and feel our yearning.

The direction we travel is not important.  The length of our path is not pertinent nor the winding curves.  The importance is in how we gently place our foot upon the ground leaving our mark.  Will we crush the beauty around us or carry its fragrance to the end?
