Incredible Journeys

The Mystery within . . . 

Life has kept me on my knees through some incredible journeys.  Learning has been the reward of these dark trips.  The superfluous is stripped away; the Mystery within becomes more known; and love of self and the other shines as the ultimate goal.

Some of my trips have been long and difficult.  Painful.  But the more I learn to strip away the superfluous, accept the pain, the closer I feel to the Mystery within, and the easier it is to love myself and the other.

What if we never journeyed on our knees?  What would we know?  How would we love?
