Although the road is never ending take a step and keep walking, do not look fearfully into the distance…On this path let the heart be your guide for the body is hesitant and full of fear.

Life is a journey, not a place we arrive, but a way of traveling through this lifetime. It is an open ended path with un expected twists and turns that lead us in many directions. Sometimes we follow reluctantly, hesitantly, fearful of what lies ahead, unknown. Sometimes we follow happily and joyously anxious to move on to higher ground. Regardless of the difficulty of the road, or the particular path we find ourselves on, we are reminded by our beloved teacher, Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh, when we choose to walk mindfully in the present moment we find “peace is every step”. Life doesn’t stand still. Neither do we. Keep walking. Be present. Breathe deep. Follow your heart.
