We Follow the Path

We follow the path of least resistance, and we call it free choice. Forward or backward.

We move into the future, or we slip back into the past and into old ways of being; old ways of living in a world that is changing, and calling for us to change with it.

We humans are creatures of habit, and yet, we’re also energy beings, and energy moves. Standing still is not an option. Which way to go? Is it easier to suffer the stress of today’s problems, or to attempt to change them, and in the process, change ourselves?

Perhaps it’s human nature to stay stuck in old patterns of response to whatever situation until we just can’t deal with it anymore, and choose to risk whatever it takes to move on.

A Journal of a journey, with Spirit as my guide, using the wisdom of I Ching, an ancient explanation of change as a necessary part of life, to understand Life, and where, how, and why my life has developed as it has, and where do I go from here, and how, and why. My mission, purpose, or desire is to share my struggle toward and passion for enlightenment, without having a clear idea of what it will look like when I find it, and I intend to find it, sooner or later. Meanwhile I seem to be struggling toward enlightenment without a clear road map, unless Spirit, my constant companion (did He invite himself along, for laughs, perhaps?) is hiding it from me, for whatever reason. Vancouver, BC Canada is the only place I care to live, in this world. Perhaps it's not entirely by choice. My name is carved into a nearby sidewalk, as if to remind me where I belong. I am blessed to have Spirit as a teacher. Just ask him.
