Why? Because you’re already there. Where? Where you’re meant to be at this moment in time. And that will change in the next moment; and still, there will be nowhere to go.
So be where you are — be fully present right where you are, right now. For that is the perfect place for you to be. Trust that this is true — that in this exact moment, there is nowhere better for you.
Margaret Mead said, “There is nowhere else to go…this is all we have.” All we have is this moment, this present experience, this current place. And it is perfect.
It’s fine to have dreams that you want to experience, but realize that any paths your mind guides you down will lead nowhere — for the end of the path isn’t what’s important, but rather the actual journey of being on the path is where the juice of life lies.
“Cease trying to work everything out with your minds. It will get you nowhere. Live by intuition and inspiration and let your whole life be revelation.” (Eileen Caddy) When you follow your inner voice, your internal GPS, you will always be on the right path. And you can then open up to the surprises and revelations that life has in store for you.
But even then, there is nowhere to go, no destination to reach, no ultimate goal. Becoming more aware and living a more conscious life is an end unto itself. The paths we take to reach that state are irrelevant. “All paths are the same, leading nowhere. Therefore, pick a path with heart.” (Carlos Castaneda)
And so, any path is as good as any other. But the path with the best fit for you will be the one you are guided to by your heart, your inner essence. And remember, it won’t be a straight line — you will find times when your inner knowing calls on you to make course corrections. So stay tuned into your internal GPS, and follow its wise guidance.
You can’t really go wrong, for there is nowhere to get to. No striving is required. “We torture ourselves getting somewhere, and when we get there it is nowhere, for there is nowhere to get to.” (David Herbert Lawrence)
If you can remember that this moment is the most important place for you to be; and that the next moment will likewise be the most important place for you to be then; you’ll be able to just “be” in each moment, following your inspiration and internal GPS’ guidance, on your way to nowhere.
I’ll see you there!
