A lovely reminder when we are feeling stuck or despondent about where we are in life. Facing our challenges often inspires the beginning of our real journey. 💛
It may be that
when we no longer know
what to do,
we have come
to our real work,
and when we
no longer know
which way to go,
we have begun
our real journey

When I’m “stuck,” I remind myself that “A good traveler has no set plans and is not intent on arriving.” ~ Lao Tzu
After all, where I am may be exactly where I need to be.
