The path is a spiral. We go up, but we go in circles.
Each time around the view gets a little wider.
I am reminded of just how much a spiral the authentic journey is when I get stuck in a set of circumstances from which escape seems impossible. When this occurs, I need to ask "What's the lesson here, so that I can move on?"
So I start again. Begin at the beginning. Make Gratitude an active rather than a passive prayer, consciously bring Simplicity and Order to my daily round, honor moments of being rather than doing.
Even if I can't change my outside circumstances, I can change how I react to them.
