“What does the path look like?” (the child wanted to know)

“It’s as unique as each individual.” (the wise one replied)

“However, there is one commonality–

The path is always a circle.”

“A circle?” (barely whispered)

“Yes. A circle.” (kindly, patiently)

“Human beings go out seeking answers

but, eventually, we find them back where we started.”

“Where I started?” (expectantly)

“Yes. (smiling) Where you started.

—Within.”

“Within.” (the child repeated, smiling)

“The light you seek, the love you seek

–all the answers–are there waiting to be tapped.”

(Then softly, fondly):

“Come, I’ll show you.

(eyes closing) 

Be still and listen, Dear One.

Be still now and know.”
