Right Path/Wrong Path?

Sat, 26 Oct 2019 00:00:00 +0000

What path are you following? There are so many options and choices to be made in life with regard to the “right” path. Is there a right path, one might ask? My own life experience tells me that the path is wide open and there is no absolutely right one. There are different wisdom traditions and different schools of thought a person might pursue or follow in life. The “right” path is one that has meaning for the individual involved and leads that person to live a better life. What is the right path for you is certainly not the right path for me. Don’t compare your path with anybody’s else’s. Your path is unique to you. Whatever path you take, it’s God calling you. - Ram Dass

It’s hard to believe that twenty-two days into the new year, I would have settled into old patterns and ways of thinking and being. A poem by Anne Hillman called “We Look with Uncertainty” was shared in this newsletter prefaced by these words: “At the beginning of the year, we stand before new doorways, and the vastness of yet unexplored passages stretching out before us, no matter how old or young we are. Beckoning us are all the moments and opportunities of our future lives in ever-unknown measure, and the only response is a wholehearted “yes.” In this spirit, how grateful we are to Anne Hillman for sharing this tender and inspiring vision through her poem:
