Humility


It is time and time again when civilizations develop, rise and then fall, either by their own undoing or external forces or both. This is part of the cyclical nature of the universe, our constellations guiding, but the motions are already in place from the time of the big bang. From the grand view or the minutest point, the cyclical motions carry on as if on a specific journey or a defined path.

So, is it written, or can our path be redefined, even though within a bound of the universal law of motion in a cyclical form?

I believe we can define our path, take the road left or right, but whichever choice we make does bring us to the destination we were meant to be.

A path is not always straight or followed according to plan. The best laid plans most always meander with missteps, detours, potholes. It is how we maneuver and overcome the diversions or challenges, the accidents and the unknowns, is what defines our destination. It is these deviations and how we deal with them is what brings us to where were meant to be in the end. How we stalwartly keep our eye on the summit and move onward taking each misstep and challenge in stride. We do ultimately end up where we were meant to be, just how and when we get there is defined by us, our actions, our attitude, and most of all our fortitude. 

The universe is based on laws of cyclical movements and what goes around does come around, whether it’s the paths we follow, the destinations we set for ourselves or our relationship with everything around us. We choose, and the universe nudges us forward, in stride, each step and misstep at a time. The key is motion, to not hesitate or falter, but to believe in your inner strength, and with determination, keep taking each deliberate step forward, one step at a time while staying aware of, and being respectful of, all that surrounds us in our periphery.

Plan for the best but prepare for the worst. All the planning gives us the confidence to move and to reach our destination quickly by the fastest route. It is important to have a plan, a line drawn around our perimeter to stay within. But that line, if rigid can choke us. Having a flexible mindset allows for working with the unknowns, the spin balls, or even possible calamities and still be able to move forward. We can define our own paths and our pace, but being respectful of things outside our control, to not be cocky and egotistical, but staying humble will help reach our destination in a calm, safe and fulfilling manner.
 
For some it may take longer and others shorter, but we all have our own journey and destination and we all get there somehow, somewhere, sometime. It’s all part of the grand plan of the universe and the natural laws of motions!
