As we grow older and become busier with responsibility, life becomes muddled and dirty in different manners. Soiled jeans and scraped elbows become a memory of a forgotten past, when a day was easy and seemed to float in possibilities. Often enough, the dirt clutters a mind ever so slowly, until reaching a point wherein the soul becomes a stranger. The purpose here is not to learn a strategy of sorts, but hopefully remembering the simplicity, flow and power of your being.
There is no crafted plot in what you have read and the book is not written in such a fashion. Although, after having read its pages, you have most likely found that the concepts reflect your personal story; if in fact, you are living a life of fulfillment by way of your path’s truth. Affirmations, inspirations, re-focusing or alignment—call them what you will, but as for me, I plainly view each page and its concepts as the roadmap of what we are meant to be—in our perfect form.
There is no studying per say, to be had here. This piece was written as an offering of recalibration in mindset. It is hopeful that you have chosen to read and re-read these pages, recognizing chards within belief systems that need discarding or replacement, while embedding the new. In short, soaking in what resonates with you and the personal journey. At best, you will eliminate more and struggle less. It is the Zen “Way.”
