OUR TRUE DESTINATION, RIGHT BEFORE OUR EYES

Zen Wisdom for Your Everyday Life

Our lives are often a frantic search to find and reach our destination. We take one road after another in search of where we want to go and where we think we belong. We also demand that our relationships lead to our destination, to what we want to receive and to be. When one road or relationship fails us, we quickly search for the next. And then the next. It is often impossible to see, or realize, that our true destination is right here now, in front of our eyes. We do not have to go anywhere to find it. And we cannot stray from it. The only reason we can’t see it is because we believe that our destination is somewhere else. When that idea fades away, when we stop going from one road t the next, it's a true wonder to realize that we are just where we belong.
