A comforting thought I keep coming back to...


Regardless of whether I turn right or turn left, I will still end up where I need to be.  

It's OK to enjoy the journey and stop worrying about the destination. 

Looking back at my life, everything was leading to me being right where I am now. I took a lot of different turns, but I still ended up here. And here is where I need to be. 

Today, I am really grateful for the life I have in all its glorious imperfection. 

(Can someone remind me I said this when I have one of those really challenging days?smile)

Thanks VVT

Inspiring thought to live by. It is wonderful when we can think and feel the wisdom of life and the experiences that have shaped us.

Being human I know I revert to impatience and expectations and then I need to be reminded of my tools You are doing great.

Appreciate the wisdom shared here.

Thanks for sharing that, what a great thought! I'm going to put that into practice immediately. I tend to worry- should I do this, should I do that? I dont need to worry so much! It will all be okay either way!

Hi,
I feel so much better when I remember this too. This is my 3rd step and learning to trust in my HP that the plan for my life is exactly where I am today. And tomorrow will be taken care of too. I have to trust in the HP that it is all unfolding as it should, and I need to enjoy every minute. (That is sometimes difficult.)
