The Journey

As my path becomes illuminated, what is within me is awakened. I see things clearly for the first time in this lifetime and I wonder what is beyond this?There is very little that touches you in the deepest place as truth does. Do not take lightly the stirrings of pain. I am left to wonder if my tears of joy are also tears of pain, and is this the same thing? It is merging and stretching to become a glossy pond of continuity. And yet the fear and sadness that comes along with this realization is also continual. Does my growth always have to cause pain for others? Does my growth always have to cause pain for me?

This is my journey and I am the only one who has to go all the way. Others may join me for a time but none have been or will be with me the entire time.
