Which Path Do You Choose? - Susan Robertson

We work so hard to get somewhere, to realize a dream, to arrive at some destination, that we often forget that though some satisfaction may be waiting at the end of our endurance and effort, there is great and irreplaceable aliveness in the steps along the way.

We spend our days at the fork in the woods, asking the wind which path is the right one, fearing the cost of a single wrong turn.

But the truth is, there are no wrong roads, only unexpected landscapes waiting to be felt. The path is not a map we are meant to find; it is the aliveness we bring to the steps we take.

Which path do you choose? Choose the one that requires your full heart. Choose the path that draws you into the present, where the journey itself becomes the destination, and where every unencumbered step wears away the illusions of who you thought you would be.
