Journey to the Heart of Stillnessa familiar story told in pictures

So, you’ve come pretty far along your path…

But now things are changing.

The way ahead looks different…

Very different indeed.

It’s no longer straightforward…

Nor easy to see.

The path may have disappeared entirely.

Leaving you feeling lost in the woods…

And like you’re walking in circles.

And every path is blocked...

Or comes to a dead end…

And you don’t know which way to go.

Using someone else’s map isn’t helping.

So it’s time to stop and reflect…

How do you know which way to go?

How do you know when it’s right for you?

When the way isn’t clear or inviting…

It’s good to be able to see the signs.

The more signs you follow, the more show up.

While sometimes the signals are mixed…

Or they feel like a dire warning…

At other times they point the way clearly.

Then you can find your way past obstacles…

To a place where you feel free.

Then the path becomes clearer…

And more visible…

And easier…

And smoother.

Until it’s just natural to go your own way…

With confidence and joy.

Knowing you are following the signalsfrom your own Heart of Stillness.
