The Path

“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.”
