A beginning, a middle and an end. A usual procedure for anything that you do in your day to day life. A stretch of glorious and bad days, something summing up your entire livelihood. Giving you time to right the wrong. A technique to get a hold of what you perceive as a human. Could be short or long, temporary or permeant with time bound or timeless.
A very typical path for someone to choose based on their end goal. As a person you determine what you want to do in your life. For some it is a war, for some it’s a peace walk, for some it’s a walk of shame, while for some it’s a glorifying emotion.
This is how I would sum up journey for everyone trying to create or reconstruct one.
There are many phases to what you would go through as a human. Since your birth you are the one who has all the options to find your perfect road to success. You start off small but end you becoming what you choose on the way. Some pickup clues to the future, some pickup stones. Many believe that they would be surprised! Getting to know someone as you travel a road makes them a part of your story. You look for answers, some are looking for questions just to keep themselves entertained as they travel.
Journey is a very comprehensive term, you are meant to find, create, conquer, fight, destroy and rebuild. This could mean anything; from what you have to what you perceive. It is what you learn from these experiences.
The success to your journey is three-fold. The secret is in knowing what you have chosen, why and where it leads.
For a simple example: when you walk your dog, you are not looking out for an answer to a problem at work. Sub-consciously thinking for sure but not your ultimate thought. You just want to come home making yourself and your pet mentally healthy.
Similarly, when at work, you may think of your pet but are not focused to give all your attention.
Path to a journey is the same, it’s all about being in the present, planning for your future and finding something on the way to keep the fire lilted. The same way you would pick up food while driving home or to a remote destination.
Finding a meaning in your trip is the true sense of journey. Loving someone makes you feel wanted; a pitstop you would want to take. Gaining a skill that you may require in the future could be another one. Understanding how people think while on their journey could give you a sense of direction when lost.
For our entire lives we plan for what we want to do and become. We plan for our studies, job security, money, marriage, kids and retirement but we forget what we miss out in this process.
Childhood, doing what you love, earning to live rather than to strive, immortal love, knowing a new generation, your final journey goal. If you link each of these attributes that I mentioned above; you would realize how little we pay attention to these elements. The cycle of life is doing its work by making you run on an exercise wheel; it’s what you see when you take each step forward; matters.
A great writer once said, the earth is round; when you reach a place, you have always wanted to, you realize there is more ground to cover. Your path to the future is always unsteady, you may plan something but it’s not necessary it would pan out accordingly.
We walk because we must reach somewhere, our minds are filled with thoughts to what we would do when we reach. While we miss on the landscape as we move ahead. It’s all about a change, a feeling and a point of view while you are on your way.
There would always be a source and destination to your journey, that is why we begin.
You would only cherish them when you stop and do something meaningful.
