Your journey...

All that is gold does not glitter; not all those that wander are lost. -J.R.R. Tolkien



I am praying and believing that you will find the ocean again and swim deeper, farther and this time swim because you found the path to your sea yourself.
I've tried to assist you in understanding the map, not losing the map, loving the map...and have prayed someday you would journey the map because you chose to.

I know that along the way you have been knocked over by many things.

Sat at tables that pointed you in directions that really were not what you deeply longed for.

Listened to voices that sounded right but ended wrong.

Touched waters edge but found it to be stagnant, not the boundless tides that seem to beckon you from within.

Been lost on clouds of illusion offered by those who have chosen to sit instead of journey.

But in the end it is your journey to take, I can't make it for you.

I agree, it is brilliant, shades of Pilgrims Progress to it.
Don't you just love creative people!
