Sometimes everything
has to be
inscribed across
the heavens
so you can find
the one line
already written
inside you.
Sometimes it takes
a great sky
to find that
first, bright
and indescribable
wedge of freedom
in your own heart.
David Whyte, The Journey
I’ve recently just discovered Mr. Whyte’s The Journey purely by ‘accident’ (coincidence)
I’ve listened to him recite it numerous times since then and have it in printed form on my vision board…
I find, in my 60s, that on this journey often I’m learning something new about myself or about this body of mine, and things I must have known, or should have, before. But in present-centeredness, life means an endless string of aha moments.
