“At the end when you reach the destination, you will realize all that matters was the journey.”
“You know you have arrived when you have stopped caring about the destination”
“You can travel the world but If you cannot let go of the past, you will never move on.”
“I think I would prefer to walk the road that didn’t exist until I walked it.”
“We cry in the journey of healing because we see ourselves dying”
“Meet people where they are at in life. The rest handles itself.”
“Meet yourself right where you are. The rest handles itself.”
“If the path be beautiful, let us not ask where it leads.”
“Successful people enjoy the journeys they embark on, irrespective of whether they reach their destination or not.”
“No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it s not the same river and he s not the same man.”
“Not I, nor anyone else can travel that road for you. You must travel it by yourself. It is not far. It is within reach. Perhaps you have been on it since you were born, and did not know. Perhaps it is everywhere - on water and land.”
“The only journey is the one within.”
“Though the road s been rocky it sure feels good to me.”
“The most important reason for going from one place to another is to see what s in between, and they took great pleasure in doing just that.”
“For me, becoming isn’t about arriving somewhere or achieving a certain aim. I see it instead as forward motion, a means of evolving, a way to reach continuously toward a better self. The journey doesn’t end.”
“Perfectly Imperfect We have all heard that no two snowflakes are alike. Each snowflake takes the perfect form for the maximum efficiency and effectiveness for its journey. And while the universal force of gravity gives them a shared destination, the expansive space in the air gives each snowflake the opportunity to take their own path. They are on the same journey, but each takes a different path. Along this gravity-driven journey, some snowflakes collide and damage each other, some collide and join together, some are influenced by wind... there are so many transitions and changes that take place along the journey of the snowflake. But, no matter what the transition, the snowflake always finds itself perfectly shaped for its journey. I find parallels in nature to be a beautiful reflection of grand orchestration. One of these parallels is of snowflakes and us. We, too, are all headed in the same direction. We are being driven by a universal force to the same destination. We are all individuals taking different journeys and along our journey, we sometimes bump into each other, we cross paths, we become altered... we take different physical forms. But at all times we too are 100% perfectly imperfect. At every given moment we are absolutely perfect for what is required for our journey. I’m not perfect for your journey and you’re not perfect for my journey, but I’m perfect for my journey and you’re perfect for your journey. We’re heading to the same place, we’re taking different routes, but we’re both exactly perfect the way we are. Think of what understanding this great orchestration could mean for relationships. Imagine interacting with others knowing that they too each share this parallel with the snowflake. Like you, they are headed to the same place and no matter what they may appear like to you, they have taken the perfect form for their journey. How strong our relationships would be if we could see and respect that we are all perfectly imperfect for our journey.”
“Sometimes, reaching out and taking someone s hand is the beginning of a journey. At other times, it is allowing another to take yours.”
