On the Right Path

The last couple months have been generally a mixed bag of emotions, some ups and downs and feeling rather lost. Feeling lost is never a good feeling for me. I was waiting for a sign or something to help guide me back to my path. I looked backward in hopes it would somehow reveal when I went off the path. I looked for signs – visible and invisible – to guide me back. I looked for a signal to trigger a thought or a creative idea to make an impact to guide me back. I think I’ve spent the last two months looking for something without knowing exactly what I was looking for to help guide me back. How do I get on the right path?

This seeking without finding has made stop and start looking at the situation differently. As my spiritual community reminds me, there are no accidents. The last two weeks have shown me that I am exactly where I am supposed to be. I was on the right path – the path I was meant to be on.

Instead of looking back to see when I went off track, I instead felt my present moment and worked through emotions that I needed to work through – the ups and downs, the refreshers and restarts. That was the right path. Instead of looking for a sign, I only had to look inward and pay attention to what my heart and mind was telling me. That was on the right path to work through things to bring me back. Instead of looking for thought or creative idea, I just need to write out my ideas when they came to me and to no longer think about a timeline or trigger. That is the right path. A new approach and look at how to arrive at the right path. I am grateful for the period of contemplation, leading me to the right path. ~ChaCha
