I agree, absolutely. I think this is probably the most important lesson. In some ways the hardest - and yet in other ways the easiest? - of them all. Thanks for stopping by, and for your generous, thoughtful comments on your own site, which helped me to find the inspiration to write this, and to keep putting one foot in front of the other. Joanna Nic, thank you so much for your words. I agree, absolutely.

One of the things I most love above about blogging is the connections it opens up to the amazing work of other people, like your own, and the free resources that you and others make available to us. I loved the Monkifesto because it 'spoke' to me with very simple words and powerful images - leaving me (and my intuition) to come up with my answers, my truths, rather than listening to more 'advice' from an 'expert'. More power to your elbow (do monks use elbows?!) and good luck with the forthcoming course. Joanna Hi Adam, thanks for stopping by, and for the feedback on the post.

I'm sure I cut down on months, if not years, of wandering by being able to get clear on what the deepest parts of me were yearning for. Beautiful post.

Perhaps it's in walking down our path that we discover that the treasure at the end of our 'yellow brick road' is in fact the true nature of the One who is doing the walking. If that's true, then there's no path to look for, is there? There's just the step that's in front of us in this moment to take.. and then the next.. then the next. Thank you Joanna.
